Schools improvement grantees can receive $6 million per school over a three-year period. The combined grants are expected to serve 594,117 students.<\/p>\n<p>Grantees are found in 49 states and the District of Columbia. Most grantees (58%) are urban schools, but rural and suburban schools make up roughly 18% each, and schools in towns comprise 7% of awards. Nearly half of the grantees are high schools, 25% are elementary schools, 20% are middle schools, and 6% fall into another category.<\/p>\n<p>Four reform models are available to each school receiving a grant: transformation, turnaround, restart and closure. Of those schools implementing grants, 73% are employing the transformation model, 21% are pursuing school turnaround, 4% are using the restart model, and 2% are closing. Urban schools are using more diverse approaches than those schools in other locations.<\/p>\n<p>To peruse the interactive map, and read a report on findings of the analysis, visit <a href=\"http:\/\/www.educationsector.org\/publications\/portrait-school-improvement-grantees\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.educationsector.org\/publications\/portrait-school-improvement-grantees<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>For an Education Week article on the challenges that SIG recipients are facing, see <a href=\"http:\/\/www.edweek.org\/ew\/articles\/2011\/04\/27\/29sig.h30.html?tkn=UZZFvx4aqzc1UMt5LnTx2CTyD9rPF%2F7drlMw&amp;cmp=clp-edweek\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.edweek.org\/ew\/articles\/2011\/04\/27\/29sig.h30.html?tkn=UZZFvx4aqzc1UMt5LnTx2CTyD9rPF%2F7drlMw&amp;cmp=clp-edweek<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A new interactive map from Education Sector looks closely at the 843 schools that have been selected as school improvement grantees so far, and how they are spending the money.
