More research and development

There is far too little meaningful R&D into what works in American public education. The federal government should create targeted, competitive grants on a matching fund basis to spur important innovation in districts and schools. The goal of these grants should be to foster and support innovation in a way that helps all schools learn from the efforts of those selected to lead the way.

To be effective, these grants must be large enough to support meaningful programs and stable enough to ensure multi-year implementations.
