Is the United States on the right track in how it funds education? As some provisions of the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) take full effect this fall, Education Week convened a panel of experts - including ERS - to explore equity in funding. Karen Hawley Miles and Jonathan Travers weighed in on how the requirement to report per-pupil funding levels can best increase transparency and help students.

Does your professional learning strategy fuel teacher and student growth?

ERS studied four leading-edge school systems that have fundamentally redesigned professional learning and have seen student growth. This short online self-assessment allows education leaders to compare their practices to those systems, focused in the areas of curriculum, collaboration, and feedback. The tool then provides a set of tailored next steps and examples from around the country.

What We're Reading... 
 
WHY NOW? 
Because our children deserve more than a few great schools.

Ensuring college and career readiness for all students, especially lower-income students and students of color, requires redesigning school systems to enable new ways of organizing schools for student and teacher learning. School System 20/20 is our vision for transforming school systems so every school succeeds for every student, because of the system - not in spite of it.
