The RAC

so is the RAC a racket after all?  It's so interesting.

The following information was taken from the New Jersey Department of Education website on the RAC or Regional Achievement Centers.
As outlined in New Jersey's No Child Left Behind waiver, the Department is undergoing a fundamental shift from a system of oversight and monitoring to service delivery and support. The Department will recognize high performing "Reward" schools and shift significant resources and support to "Priority" and "Focus" schools, those schools that are the lowest performing in the state or that have significant achievement gaps.

Seven field-based Regional Achievement Centers (RACs) staffed with expert school turnaround teams will work directly with Priority and Focus Schools to implement proven turnaround principles and dramatically improve student achievement.
