SEATTLE — State education officials say 13 Washington schools will be getting federal dollars to improve their schools. The 3-year grants range from $50,000 to $3 million a year.
The money will be used for a variety of improvement activities, ranging from teacher training to classroom supplies and materials and before- and after-school programs.
This is Washington’s third round of school improvement grants. The majority of schools in the program have shown significant improvement in student reading and math achievement.
