Specifications include, but are not limited to: The successful Offeror will serve as a mathematics support team to the Mississippi Department of Education (MDE) and local education agencies (LEAs) by providing cohesive, on-going, classroom-focused (job-embedded) mathematics professional development for LEAs and various program offices at the MDE; and instructional coaching services for a select number of K-12 public schools throughout the state. Said Offeror will be responsible for developing and delivering a structured framework of supports for professional development; recruiting, vetting, selecting, hiring, and deploying mathematics coaches; and for working with existing mathematics coaches and/or content area staff that may be employed with the MDE or that provide instructional supports in the area of mathematics on behalf of the MDE (herein referred to as “MDE content staff”.) The inclusion of MDE content staff in this project is to ensure consistent and aligned messaging and mathematics supports—internally and externally.
