On April 10, 2015 in Nashville, Tennessee, the Reform Support Network brought together leaders from State education agencies planning to make educator compensation a key component of their equitable access plans. The convening featured presentations by the Tennessee Department of Education and district leaders who explained how the State has supported district-based compensation reform and researchers who supported the State's efforts. Afterward, leaders from participating States discussed how to use compensation to increase educator effectiveness and promote equitable access to effective teachers. This publication summarizes the discussions that took place at the convening and the work that participating States have undertaken since April 2015.
