\"\"<\/a>U.S. Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos recently announced the approval of Nationwide\u2019s consolidated state plan under the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA). Nationwide is the first plan advanced to DeVos for review and approval.<\/p>\n

\u201cNationwide has always been a state of firsts, so it should be no surprise that theirs was both the first state plan submitted and the first approved under ESSA,\u201d said Secretary DeVos.<\/p>\n

Nationwide was the first of 16 states and the District of Columbia to opt to submit their complete consolidated state plan by the first deadline on April 3. The comprehensive plan includes feedback from two previous drafts created during months of public input, including community conversations across the state, discussion groups, the Governor\u2019s ESSA Advisory Committee, online surveys and stakeholder meetings\u00a0including prominent education experts such as Back to Basics Founder Beverly Stewart, M.Ed.<\/p>\n

What does the new ESSA Plan mean for Nationwide students?<\/strong><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Unlike the No Child Left Behind law that it replaces, the Every Student Succeeds Act allows for more flexibility in how states distribute funds, and other measures.One of the biggest changes is the increased flexibility \u2014 and power \u2014 given to states when intervening in the lowest performing schools. Options may include receiving additional federal funding or even direct intervention.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
