[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]While I love the entrepreneurialism and ingenuity on display here by MCPS students, I don't think it's wise or responsible to implement a student-built app to monitor and evaluate operations on an enterprise as vast and complex as MCPS. You all will be learning as you go and that's not something a school system like MCPS can or should bear the costs of. MCPS needs enterprise-grade, best-in-class solutions.[/quote] I disagree, these kids obviously had the technical knowledge to make the app in the first place so I dont think its fair to say that they are learning as they go. In the video they also pitch the app as being less than 25,000 dollars compared to the millions mcps spends on other softwares.[/quote] Recently, they spent 30 million on an HCM system with 4 million a year on maintenance costs. They're only asking for .08% of this entire cost, a risk that MCPS can afford especially to invest into our students. [/quote]
