More States Must Use Flexibility Wavers to Expand Learning Time

Washington, D.C.–(ENEWSPF)–December 19, 2013.  A new report released yesterday by the Center for American Progress provides an up-to-date review of states’ Elementary and Secondary Education Act, or ESEA, flexibility plans and assesses the extent to which states have strategically thought about how expanded learning time can support school turnaround efforts. According to the analysis, the majority of states—32 out of 42—failed to think strategically about how increased learning time could complement school turnaround plans and increase academic achievement.
