Millions to Tennessee and Delaware


Delaware will recieve $100 million dollars and Tennessee will recieve $500 million for their education. They will recieve the funds through the "race to the top" program. This provides money to states that agree to and make plans to reform thier education system to the national government's standards. The states must make plans to turn around low-standard schools, adopt college and career ready standards, and using data systems to support achievement. It is great that our education system is being reformed in this way but I think that the national government might be getting a little bit too involved.
