The grant is worth $250 million over four years and will be used to implement Maryland鈥檚 Third Wave of Reform, moving the State from national leader to World Class. Local school systems have developed Race to the Top Scopes of Work which are closely aligned with the overall State plan to guide the implementation of educational reforms.
