Reorganizing priorities to strengthen adolescent literacy skills is critical for the U.S. education system to succeed, according to a new, comprehensive report from the Carnegie Corporation.
Last week, U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan announced preliminary guidelines for the $650 Million Investing In Innovation (i3) grant program.
Unlike the previously announced Race to the Top funds which were only for public schools, i3 funds will also be available to non-profits, charter schools, colleges, and private companies.
