Transforming Lives through Education. 2016 Annual Report
Foundation for Excellence in Education (ExcelinEd)
A full year of progress in advancing education reform across America is documented in each of the Foundation for Excellence in Education's Annual Reports. In this report, readers will see the broad range of initiatives that the Foundation for Excellence in Education is working on--policies that personalize the learning experience for students, that challenge them with college- or career-ready expectations, that prioritize early-grade literacy, and that hold schools accountable to parents and taxpayers. Following a section about the Foundation for Excellence in Education (Excel"in"Ed), which is a national leader in the education reform movement, this report provides a year in review to illustrate Excel"in"Ed's accomplishments. Also provided are reports on the following topics: (1) School Grading Drives Student Success; (2) Reading is the Gateway to Learning; (3) Putting Dollars Where They Matter; (4) Revolutionizing Educational Choice; (5) Preparing Students for a Global Economy; (6) Expanding Access and Equity; (7) A Model for 21st-Century Learning; (8) Returning Authority to the States; (9) By the Numbers; (10) Convening the Nation's Leaders; (11) Excel"in"Ed Across the Nation; (12) Fiscal Accountability; and (13) 2016 Donors.
