EXECUTIVE SUMMARY | |
This agreement for evaluation services is recommended in order to fulfill the TIF 4 grant requirement for a third-party evaluation consultant. Mariann Schmudde was selected to serve as a third-party project evaluator based on her responses to the Request for Proposal (RFP) 11143-DST Program Evaluation Services. The RFP process provided an opportunity for all interested evaluators to apply as potential Hillsborough County Public Schools (HCPS) program evaluation providers. Mariann Schmudde has worked with the TIF 4 grant evaluation for the previous 2 years and has provided exceptional services and high quality performance reports for the grant.
The TIF 4 grant is part of a larger ongoing district-wide commitment to attract, support, reward, and retain the most effective teachers and administrators. Executive Summary continued on Attachment A. |
