reviewing technology plans for Ed-Tech, and I am reviewing them for e-Rate. While
many of the criteria overlap, there may be instances in which your plan will
pass for one program, but not another. Please pay careful attention to the
guidance you receive from your reviewer, and remember that an approval for one
program does not guarantee approval for the other. You will receive separate guidance
and separate approval letters for each program. I am working closely with my
counterparts at ODE and we are committed to helping each and every district and
ESD get their plans approved. As always, feel free to contact me with questions.
