The State Collaborative on Reforming Education (SCORE), established by Senator Bill Frist, M.D., has been instrumental in enhancing student achievement across Tennessee since its inception in 2009. Each year, SCORE publishes a comprehensive report that outlines its milestones and evaluates the overall progress of the Tennessee education system. This annual report also provides strategic recommendations aimed at improving educational outcomes for the future.
During a recent event, SCORE highlighted four key education priorities that they believe Tennessee should focus on in 2026 and beyond. These priorities are designed to address the evolving needs of students and educators, ensuring that the state remains committed to fostering an environment conducive to learning and growth. The organization emphasizes the importance of collaboration among stakeholders, including educators, policymakers, and community members, to drive meaningful reform. As Tennessee continues to navigate the challenges of education, SCORE’s insights will be vital in shaping the future of the state’s educational landscape.
