ED is seeking recommendations for reviewers for Race to the Top, the $4.35
billion competition for states to lead the way in school reforms.



“We hope to assemble panels of our nation’s most distinguished educators,
policymakers, and scholars to participate in the review process for this
ambitious reform initiative,” Secretary Arne Duncan said in a letter this
week. “I am writing to ask for your help in identifying candidates for
consideration.”



“I encourage you to share this letter with anyone you feel is qualified,” he
said. He asked for recommendations as soon as possible and no later than
September 30, 2009.



Secretary Duncan’s
letter<http://www.ed.gov/policy/gen/guid/secletter/090902.html>provides
further information about recommendations and applications.
