The U.S. Department of Education’s new Race to the Top-District (RTT-D) Grant Competition pushes districts to think even more deeply about how to leverage family, school, and community partnerships that support student learning. More than previous RTT competitions, this grant enables local communities to work with their districts on developing community school strategies that create the conditions for teaching and learning. This is a tremendous opportunity for community schools.

Join us on the Thursday, June 21 webinar at 11 a.m. (Eastern) to learn more about the RTT-D competition. Hear from district and community leaders about how they have developed district-community partnerships that are required throughout the grant competition and how they align with community school principles.

Speakers include:

Martin Blank, President, Institute for Educational Leadership (IEL) & Director, Coalition for Community Schools
Curtiss Sarikey, Associate Superintendent, Family, Schools and Community Partnerships, Oakland (CA) Unified School District
Carol Paine-McGovern, Director, Kent School Services Network in Grand Rapids, Mich.
