The nation’s most populous state won’t get a fig from the federal government for its troubled public schools, after the state once again failed to qualify for competitive Race to the Top grants.
As Damien Bulwa reports in the San Francisco Chronicle, California came in 16th among 19 states competing for a second round of funding. Only the top nine entities -- eight states and the District of Columbia will receive money.
