📢 While our nation's leaders wrestle with questions of governance, America's young people are in crisis: 📉 The U.S. ranks 24th globally in math. 📉 Today’s struggling readers are performing worse than they did 30 years ago. This achievement gap isn't just an educational challenge. It’s a fundamental threat to our nation's future that demands a strategic national response. At TNTP, we partner with dedicated educators across the country, and we’ve seen what works—career-connected learning, strong teaching, high-quality instructional materials, supportive relationships, and civic experiences. This moment calls for transformation, not demolition. There are no shortcuts and no silver bullets. But with strong federal leadership, state and local innovation, and a shared commitment to what works, we can create a system that truly prepares every student for the future.
