The Tennessee Department of Education has awarded more than $2.6 million in Perkins Reserve Grant (PRG) grant funds to 55 school districts to support career and technical education (CTE) programming in the 2024-25 school year.

A new white paper from the Tennessee STEM Innovation Network says that Tennessee’s Regional STEM Innovation Hubs are having a “transformative effect on teaching and learning throughout the state.”

A memo released today from the State Collaborative on Reforming Education (SCORE) said the state’s schools must do more to ensure Tennessee students receive the career and technical education needed to better meet the changing workforce needs of the state.
