Tackling Educational Issues on a National Level
The NCTT has established partnerships with national groups so that it can more effectively participate in the national dialogue on educational issues. The groups are the Education Trust in Washington, DC, and the Education Commission of the States (ECS) in Denver, Colorado.
The NCTT is partnering with the Education Trust on best practices for improving student achievement. Schools and districts making significant progress in student achievement for all students, particularly for low income and minority students, were invited from across the nation to present the strategies they used at the Education Trust's 15th National Conference. The NCTT is partnering with the Education Trust on this conference.
