2014-15 State of Education Report in Tennessee: Progress Report | Page 2

Since
2009,
the
State
Collaborative
on
Reforming
Education (SCORE) has published
an annual report on the state of
education in Tennessee. These
reports provide an update on the
work taking place to improve student
achievement in Tennessee, highlighting
successes and challenges faced over
the past year and setting education
priorities for the coming year. These
priorities are developed collaboratively
through
conversations
with
teachers,
principals, district leaders, business leaders,
policymakers, and state-level education
leaders. The recommendations set forth in each
of these priorities intend to guide the work of
education partners in Tennessee in the coming
year, all with the ultimate goal of improved
learning for students. This progress report
outlines actionable steps that Tennessee’s
education partners must take to accomplish
the priorities established in SCORE’s 201415 State of Education in Tennessee report.
Throughout the year, SCORE will release
an updated Progress Report, indicating
where progress has been made on
specific priorities and highlighting
priority areas that need continued
support. This Progress Report
is meant to hold all education
partners accountable for the
work that must be done in
2015 to support continued
growth in Tennessee student
achievement.
