Race to the Top

Breaking News: Tennessee and Delaware announced as first-round winners of the Race to the Top program. Read More Here
Billions of dollars have recently been set aside by the US Government under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act as an incentive for districts across America that are working hard to improve the quality of education in their schools. This program is being called Race to the Top. OnHand Schools has developed a detailed initiative to help districts everywhere focus on the 4 main goals of the Race to the Top program, and therefore increase their chances of receiving funding. |
| |
| Race to the Top Focus Areas: |
 |
Adopting standards and assessments that prepare students to succeed in college and the workplace and to compete in the global economy; |
 |
Building data systems that measure student growth and success, and inform teachers and principals about how they can improve instruction; |
 |
Recruiting, developing, rewarding, and retaining effective teachers and principals, especially where they are needed most; and |
 |
Turning around our lowest-achieving schools. |
