Organizations Combine Efforts to Improve Teacher Quality
January 24, 2017
As reported by The 74, Learning Forward merged with the National Commission on Teaching and America’s Future to “combine their efforts to improve teacher quality” under ESSA. Stephanie Hirsh, executive director of Learning Forward, stated this was “prefect timing” for the groups to join because they are “both concerned about the implementation of ESSA.” Hirsh argued they are one of the “few organizations” that is “actually talking about how ESSA can really improve teaching and learning.”
