GATESWATCH: Some 15 States Getting Extra Help

Custom_1239297553204_mobserver

Word from a usually reliable source is that some 15 states are getting extra help and support from the Gates Foundation in the form of consultant time and coordination in putting their RttT package together.  No response from the Gates communications folks but these states may include Tennessee, Massachusetts, Kentucky, Washington, Texas, Ohio and Minnesota.  I'm guessing Illinois is in there, too.  Know any others?  Meantime, we're still waiting to find out which of the 10 districts that were in the finals for the teacher quality "deep dive" are going to get that money:  10 Districts Vie For $500M.

Gates really needs to stay away from Texas.
