In an event co-hosted by AEI and the Center for American Progress, Rick Hess and Raegan Miller will discuss their views on what particular changes to the Elementary and Secondary Education Act will allow it to fulfill its aims without causing educators and local officials legal headaches.

Today, American Enterprise Institute (AEI) director of education policy studies Rick Hess, along with Raegen Miller and Cindy Brown of the Center for American Progress, released recommendations for fixing key provisions of Title I of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA)--federal funding targeted at our nation’s neediest students.

The federal government can and should play a limited but important role in helping the nation address the challenge of  improving the productivity of education spending.

State education agencies and their chiefs must transform the SEA into an agent of change that can assist districts in the crucial task of remaking our public schools to meet the needs of our children in the 21st century.

America's foreign aid programs must be accountable to taxpayers, and transparency makes it happen.
