Rex supports plan to push math, science learning to higher levels across the nation

From South Carolina Department of Education, June 10, 2009

State Superintendent of Education Jim Rex today hailed a new national report that proposes “doing school differently” to achieve higher levels of math and science learning.

Rex met with U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan and other officials for the release of The Opportunity Equation: Transforming Mathematics and Science Education for Citizenship and the Global Economy, a new report issued by the Carnegie Corporation’s Institute for Advanced Study Commission on Mathematics and Science Education. It outlines the steps needed to place math and science at the center of education innovation, improvement and accountability.
