Pandemic-era education funding is gone. Student test scores are down. The future of k12 federal funding appears unstable. And despite these negative headlines, there are strategies that accelerate academic recovery and states with districts that are implementing them to great effect.

I hope you read it. I’m excited to continue working with Accelerate and Harvard Strategic Data Project to expand high-impact interventions for students who need them most.
