What these records prove

Contract award: the public procurement agreement names a selected supplier and scope. Orders and payments are separate evidence. Board authorization: approval or a spending ceiling; execution and payment may still be unknown. Reported core use: a state public dataset identifies what schools report using, without proving a sale or amount.

Counts reflect this reviewed sample and must not be treated as national or state market share. Historical Pearson names are preserved. District office locations do not establish municipal service areas. Preschool mixed bundles are identified separately.
