State Superintendent of Education: State Fiscal Stabilization Fund Data and Information

State Fiscal Stabilization Fund Data and Information

The State Fiscal Stabilization Fund (SFSF) provides approximately $48.6 billion directly to governors to help save jobs and drive education reform. The Department of Education awarded SFSF funds in two phases. In Phase I applications, State governors were required to assure that their states would take action and make progress in four areas of education reform:

Adopting internationally benchmarked standards and assessments that prepare students for success in college and the workplace;
Recruiting, developing, and retaining effective teachers and principals;
Building data systems that measure student success and inform teachers and principals how they can improve their practices; and
Turning around our lowest-performing schools.

In Phase II applications, Governors were required to provide data in each of these four areas of reform. In addition, States committed to making the data available to educators and the public to empower them to identify needs and to drive reform. If a state could not provide the data, it was required to submit a plan for ensuring this information would be publicly reported as soon as possible, but no later than September 30, 2011. OSSE’s data and plans for each indicator in the SFSF Phase II application may be found in the following tables.
