SUPERIOR	Involves representative schools, school districts, colleges or universities with superior and replicable activities JPL directly benefits from the relationship through testbed, pilot or sustained educational efforts, teacher or student feedback systems, etc
GOOD	Good involvement of representative local schools, school districts, or universities, activities probably replicable Good direct benefit to JPL by explicit intellectual exchange between both partners
ACCEPTABLE	Some involvement of representative local schools, districts, or universities, activities below expectations or replicability Some direct benefit to JPL by some intellectual exchange
NEEDS REVISION	No involvement of representative local schools, school districts, or universities No direct benefit to JPL from the relationship
