Delaware receives $100 million Race-to-the-Top Education Award

Career Cruising would like to congratulate the state of Delaware on its selection as one of two states to receive a Race to the Top Education Award in the first phase of the program. Race to the Top is an unprecedented federal granting program that aims to reward states that are leading the way in statewide school reform.

Preparing students to succeed in college and the workplace is one of the program’s key focus areas. Student Success Plans, implemented statewide by Career Cruising, are just one part of the innovative strategies Delaware is employing to meet this goal. Using Student Success Plans, students, parents, and educators are working together to help students identify career goals, prepare for college, and become more engaged in their high school education.

Forty states and the District of Columbia applied for the first round of funding for this $4.35 billion initiative.
