The Organization Named Achieve: Cradle of Common Core Cronyism
Phelps, Richard P.
Online Submission, Nonpartisan Education Review v14 n3 p1-26 Aug 2018
Achieve is corporate America's direct connection to national education policy. Mainstream business leaders seem to trust it, and their foundations give it money. Whether Achieve actually achieves its mission is open to debate. Over two decades, it has grown substantially and spun off several other organizations that extend its reach. Has Achieve used its resources wisely? Is it now what it was meant to be twenty years ago when 86 governors and corporate CEOs created it? That is the subject of this report.
