REGIONAL ADVISORY COMMITTEES APPOINTED BY SECRETARY PAIGE
The Department of Education has established 10 Regional Advisory Committees (RACs) to advise it on the technical assistance needs of educators in 10 geographic regions across the nation. These RACs are now conducting educational needs assessments and, in March 2005, will submit a report to the Secretary identifying the challenges each region faces in improving student achievement. Make your voice about the need for greater asisstance on relationships between schools and communities.
Go to the RAC web site at <a href="http://www.rac-ed.org/">http://www.rac-ed.org/</a> and posting your comments in the public discussion area designated for your region. The results of these assessments will be used to assist the Secretary in establishing funding priorities for 20 new comprehensive technical assistance centers that will help states, school districts, and school to implement the goals of the No Child Left Behind Act.
