The Sanders Firm 2016 Scholarship Winners Public education in this nation continues to undergo significant change. At present, states are still clarifying their stances on Common Core and new Learning Standards while implementing a host of assessments to measure and report progress, awaiting the revision and reauthorization of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act, and awaiting word on the higher regulations for colleges and universities. Yet simultaneously, states are engaged in the revision of Equity Plans and working to eliminate the Honesty Gap in data reporting to ensure a bright future for our nation's children. At The Sanders Firm we will continue, as we must, to incite learning, inspire students to take risks that promote growth, serve as role models and foster collaborative and critical thinking that will prepare our nation's students for academic and personal success. That's why we are pleased to announce our 2016 scholarship winners! Read About Winners Here
