McGraw-Hill Education Agrees to Acquire Engrade

McGraw-Hill Education today announced that it has agreed to acquire Engrade, the developer of an open digital platform for K-12 education that unifies the data, curriculum and tools that educators use every day. The move enables McGraw-Hill Education to meet U.S. K-12 schools' growing demand for platforms that bring together the delivery of digital instructional content and assessments and the analysis of student information and performance data.

As part of McGraw-Hill Education's commitment to open standards, the company plans to grow Engrade's platform under its current business model while also deeply integrating Engrade with McGraw-Hill Education's own digital platforms.
