Senators Jack Reed (RI) and Sherrod Brown (OH) in the U.S. Senate, and Representative Marcia Fudge (OH) in the U.S. House of Representatives have reintroduced legislation that would establish standards for educational opportunities in schools and school districts. The Core Opportunity Resources for Equity and Excellence Act would require that schools and school districts provide all students with equitable access to the resources necessary to achieve college and career readiness by high school graduation. The resources include high-quality teaching staff, including librarians; rigorous academic standards and curricula; appropriate class size; up-to-date materials and technology; effective library systems; effective family and community engagement programs; physically and environmentally sound buildings; and specialized support teams that include counselors, social workers, and nurses. reed.senate.gov/news/releases/reed-and-brown-introduce-core-act-to-help-improve-public-schools
