Incorporating dropout reduction in MA Race to the Top application

The recent publication of the Dropout Commission's report coincides with a huge opportunity, the preparation of the Commonwealth's Race to the Top application.  To view information on the RFP, application and public comment process, click here.  The Massachusetts Business Alliance for Education has invited the Youth Transitions Task Force and other networks around the state to join in developing comments that provide a structured proposal for incorporating dropout reduction and the Commission's leading recommendations.  We ask that you submit comments, according to the structure suggested in the Power Point posted in the web link, and that you include the attached document, or your edited version of it by January 4th.
