What does it take to change the trajectory of a school system? Our partners in Charleston County School District (CCSD) are proving that strategic investments in teacher development and instructional infrastructure are key. Four years into the ambitious Acceleration Schools initiative, CCSD has seen historic improvements in math and ELA learning, countering national declines. 🎯100% of schools supported by Leading Educators in ELA surpassed their 2019 (pre-pandemic) state scores in 2023, maintaining progress through focused work on instruction. 🎯The average yearly growth for Acceleration Schools matched the growth of all other schools in the district in ELA at 21 points per year. In math, Acceleration Schools students achieved double the growth rate of other schools at 13 points per year. 🎯 Half of the Acceleration Schools were removed from the state improvement list by 2023. Learn how CCSD is sowing the seeds for an opportunity-rich future.  https://hubs.la/Q02Cd--j0

“At their best, K-12 public school systems can be engines of social and economic mobility. Unfortunately, schools in lower-income districts—whose students have the greatest academic needs—often receive less funding than their counterparts in more affluent districts.” This fascinating analysis from Bellwether looks closely at education funding disparities within 123 large metro areas across 38 states and explores policy tools state leaders can use to ensure all districts receive the funding they need to provide all #students with the resources and opportunities to succeed.
