Coordinator: Tasha Werry 740-374-6500 X 17 Ohio Appalachian Collaborative What is the OAC? The Ohio Appalachian Collaborative unites 22 districts consisting of 81 schools and 37,000 students. It joins members of the Appalachian community and culture in a system of support for small, rural schools. By doing so, the OAC has given us a much larger voice and a direct channel of communication with the Ohio Department of Education. The OAC’s mission is to dramatically increase students’ college and career readiness so that they are prepared for and succeed in higher education, maximizing their career and life opportunities. Teacher Incentive Fund What is TIF? The Teacher Incentive Fund is a federal program that rewards teachers and school leaders for going above expectations in enhancing instructional quality and student achievement. In order to give students the greatest opportunities for success, we need school teachers and leaders that are developing their skills and rewarded in ways that are motivating and encouraging. With TIF, educators have access to resources and training that allows them to grow and evolve as educators. Educators also have the opportunity to work in collaborative environments with others in their profession in order to gain new ideas and insight. Race to the Top (RttT) What is RTTT? Race to the Top is a federal grant that was awarded to 9 of 46 states. RTTT aims to improve student achievement, close achievement gaps between the best and lowest performing schools, increase high school graduation rates, and train students to graduate college and career ready.
