Race to the Top Fund

The Race to the Top Fund is a $5 billion grant under the $787 billion American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA). The fund will reward innovation and change by awarding incentive grants to states that show progress in the following four areas:

Boosting teacher effectiveness and getting more good teachers into high-poverty, high-moral schools
Setting up data systems to track how much a student has learned from one year to the next
Improving academic standards and tests
Supporting struggling schools

The funding can go towards programs that can help create a higher quality 21st century classroom and education for students.
