Anne Bubnic on 24 Apr 09While the Stabilization Fund will help relieve our immediate economic crisis, it is also intended to boost student achievement, so to access this money, we seek your commitment to the following four essential areas of reform: * Making improvements in teacher effectiveness and ensuring that all schools have highly qualified teachers; * Making progress toward college and career-ready standards and rigorous assessments that will improve both teaching and learning; * Improving achievement in low-performing schools, by providing intensive support and effective interventions in schools that need them the most; * Gathering information to improve student learning, teacher performance, and college and career-readiness through enhanced data systems that track progress.
