Will Pearson Prevail?

Now that MCPS has won an i3 Grant from the Department of Education the big question is will Pearson Education, Inc. be the private sector partner to work on the MCPS i3 Grant? 


The image below shows that MCPS came in 41st out of 49 in the ranking of the top applications for the i3 Grant. If you can't see the image, click here and go to page 3.


See this blog's previous post on the requirements of this Department of Education grant with regard to for-profit partners. Will the Department of Education require that MCPS obtain competitive bids for this private sector partnership? 


Don't miss the "fine print" on the Department of Education announcement of i3 Grant winners. See image below:



This really is "fine print." If you can't read it, click here and take a look at footnote #6.


Looks like the" Montgomery County Pearson Schools" project isn't a done deal yet.
