Department of Education’s Teacher Initiatives: The U.S. Department of Education will award an additional $100 million next month under the Teacher Quality Partnership program to improve the recruitment, preparation, and licensure of teachers in high-need school districts, and will commit an additional $200 million this year to pursuing effective performance-pay models and approaches to supporting and rewarding teachers in high-need schools. These efforts – supported by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act – will contribute to the further development of effective math and science teachers. In addition, there will be an Administration effort this year, led by Secretary of Education Arne Duncan, to raise the profile of the teaching profession and to recruit teachers in areas of key shortages including math and science. As Congress embarks upon the reauthorization of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act, the Obama Administration will seek to build upon the reforms brought into focus by the Recovery Act to better recognize, encourage, and reward excellence in the teaching profession.
