PIRL associate director Nicholas Papageorge was awarded a grant from the Institute of Education Sciences for a new study on how teachers learn racial competency and how they become more effective over time for all of their students.  Prof. Papageorge will work in collaboration with Seth Gershenson (American University), Constance Lindsay (University of North Carolina), and PIRL director Stefanie DeLuca to conduct both quantitative and qualitative phases for the study.

During the month of January, PIRL researchers completed 49 follow-up interviews with families that received housing choice vouchers in Seattle and King County.
