Maryland to use Race to the Top $$ to revise Curriculum - But what about MCPS & Pearson Curriculum?
Isn't MCPS developing their own new Pre-K to 5th grade curriculum with Pearson Education, Inc? Will MCPS be developing a Pre-K to 5th grade curriculum at the exact same time that the Maryland State Department of Education is developing a new curriculum? Which curriculum will be used in MCPS classrooms?
...The money will be spent over two years, and it must be earmarked for specific programs. In Maryland's case, it will be used to revise its pre-kindergarten through 12th-grade state curriculum and to build a statewide technology system to monitor and promote student achievement. The funds will also be used to create a new model to prepare, develop and retain teachers and principles and to develop new programs to improve the state's low-performing schools...
