EDUCATION: New Study on Teacher Quality Released
A new Joyce funded study released by Public Impact calls for education leaders to build an ‘opportunity culture’ for America’s teachers by creating a profession that offers “further opportunities for achievement, impact, and rewards that are significant and proportional to each person’s actual effectiveness at work.”
Opportunity at the Top: How America’s Best Teachers Could Close the Gaps, Raise the Bar, and Keep Our Nation Great is the first in the series Building an Opportunity Culture for America’s Teacher, funded by The Joyce Foundation.
