Summary

State education agencies that get these funds must send the Secretary a yearly report. The report must say how the state used the grant money and how those activities made teachers, principals, or other school leaders more effective. If money was used to help low-income or minority students get better access to teachers, the report must explain that. If the state used funds for an evaluation system, the report must include evaluation results but not any person’s identity. When available, the report must show yearly retention rates for effective and ineffective teachers and leaders using the State’s methods, but no agency has to collect or report data it was not collecting the day before December 10, 2015. Local school districts that get funds must give the state the information the state requests, including the items above for the district. All reports and the information must be easy for the public to find and must not reveal anyone’s identity.
