With new federal data showing continued, middle-of-the-pack performance by Connecticut schools, Gov. Dannel P. Malloy found the middle ground among competing interests for a landmark education law.

For once, teachers were not front and center in the debate.

HARTFORD—In a sweeping education deal with lawmakers and teacher unions here, Gov. Dannel Malloy gave ground on some of his farthest-reaching proposals but contended the compromise was still a historic overhaul of public-school policy in a state that has proved resistant to change.

Hartford Courant

Gov. Dannel P. Malloy said Monday night that his administration and lawmakers had reached an agreement on "meaningful education reform" — an agreement that he said adds nearly $100 million in new education spending and will help the state regain its competitive edge.

Gov. Dannel P. Malloy and Democratic legislative leaders celebrated what they called an “historic” agreement on a sweeping education reform proposal that believe will help Connecticut erase its largest-in-the-nation achievement gap.

At a 10 p.m. press conference, Malloy told a packed room of reformers and leaders of at least one of the state’s teacher unions that the bill the Senate is expected to take up later this evening is just a beginning.

Say this for Gov. Dannel Malloy, love his policies or hate them, he has largely gotten what he wants in his first year and a half in office. He pushed through the largest tax increase in state history after inheriting a $3 billion-plus disaster of a state budget; he was able to wring desperately needed concessions out of the state employee unions (after first failing); he instituted the “First Five” job-creation program; and won hard-fought approval for the Jackson Labs economic development project..

WANTED: State Campaign Director, Rhode Island

Posted December 15, 2009 at 11:59am

Rhode Island

ConnCAN has hit a major milestone in the evolution of the organization: our first campaign outside of Connecticut. Now that we’ve seen what’s possible through a high-energy, driven campaign for education reform, we want to do more. Our work in Connecticut is the inspiration for a new initiative to expand ConnCAN’s model of advancing the principles of choice, accountability and flexibility to other states.

The first step is to hire an exceptional individual to be the founding state campaign director of RhodeIslandCAN: The Rhode Island Campaign for Achievement Now. This is an extraordinary job and we are looking for an extraordinary candidate.

The director will serve as the “advocate-in-chief” in advancing policy changes, the spokesperson for the campaign, and the head of local fundraising. Backed up by extensive support from the ConnCAN team, the director will drive a statewide campaign to raise awareness about the need for education reform grounded in Rhode Island-specific research. During the first six months of 2010, the director will work in Connecticut alongside ConnCAN CEO Alex Johnston and COO Marc Porter Magee to learn the ins and outs of running an effective issue campaign. In the second six months, the director will help recruit two additional Rhode Island team members, a government relations manager and a community relations manager, to complete the three-person RhodeIslandCAN campaign team. The director will report to the CEO and COO.
