The purpose of this Request For Proposal (RFP) is to solicit proposals to establish a contract with a dynamic, innovative, digital and traditional marketing agency partner to help drive marketing to boost recruitment and enrollment through a series of campaigns to be used by MPS. Services are to start July 1, 2019, through the remainder of the 2019-20 school year (i.e., July 1, 2019, to June 30, 2020).
