SECONDARY EDUCATION

Senator Markey has fought to provide education funding to Massachusetts schools because he knows it is the best investment we can make in our economic future. He is a proponent of President Obama’s “Race to the Top” program, which incentivizes states to improve their education programs. Massachusetts is one of twelve states who have been successful in the Department of Education’s Race to the Top competition.
