The American Federation of Teachers congratulated Delaware and Tennessee as the winners in the first round of the $4.3 billion federal “Race To The Top” education grants. The AFT says both states listened to teachers through their unions on ways to improve education. But the AFT said it was disappointed that no state with large urban centers was among the first round of grant recipients. And the union also says it believes that providing education for children should not be a contest between states.
