Valuing Public Education: a 50 State Record Card, is an evaluation of how well our states and the District of Columbia support public schools.

​

It’s the first in-depth, nonpartisan report card to grade states according to whether their current policies and laws make public schools vibrant and strong or undermine them. It stands in stark contrast to report cards released from conservative political organizations like The American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) and StudentsFirst that wrongly rank states based on their willingness to privatize public education and weaken the status of the teaching profession.
