Texas Education Agency (TEA) Review of School Reform Grants Competition

Project Lead: Jesus Davila

Safal Partners recently organized and facilitated the expert review of School Reform Grants for the Texas Education Agency (TEA). This project typifies Safal’s ability to provide timely support that expands the capacity of our partners. The TEA needed a national pool of subject matter experts capable of reviewing applications from Texas districts requesting funds to make substantial changes to chronically low-performing public schools. Safal was able to deliver a large cohort of appropriate experts and facilitate the timely review of applications after a much larger group of applicants applied for the funds than had been expected.
