Education News from Washington, DC
In mid-2010, the Alliance began "Education News from Washington, DC," a new series of interactive one-hour webinars that focus on the latest federal happenings around education reform.
The webinars include a short presentation on the topic at hand, followed by a question-and-answer session featuring questions from viewers around the country.

Publications on ESEA Reauthorization
The No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB) has helped to focus the nation's attention on the unacceptable achievement gap and the imperative of improving outcomes for all students, especially the most disadvantaged. But the needs of high schools are barely addressed in NCLB, so federal policy does little to improve high school students' achievement and little federal funding reaches high schools.
The Alliance has published several reports and briefs on why ESEA reauthorization should include an appropriate and adequate federal role in supporting middle and high school reform across the country.
