Edbuild Contract will be Made Public

Mississippi’s legislative leaders have announced they will post their contract with Edbuild to the Transparency Mississippi website.
This comes after state Attorney General Jim Hood wrote a letter to state leaders saying law required them to and after heavy backlash from the public over the lack of transparency regarding the contract.
Edbuild was hired by the legislature to examine the Mississippi Adequate Education Program and make recommendations as to how it can be changed to best serve students.
In the first public meeting held at the state capitol, the overwhelming sentiment from residents was that they wanted lawmakers to fully fund the current formula before changing it.
