Initiatives

Our Action Network provides you with up-to-date alerts either via email or text on issues affecting Tennessee’s students. We will send you only the most urgent issues seeking your input on how these policies impact students and how you can raise your voice for student success. 

Tristar Reads is an annual contest designed to encourage children across the Volunteer State to read for at least 20 minutes a day during the summer break. The program is open to all Tennessee students in kindergarten through 12th grade and $1,000 scholarships will be awarded to the students who read and log the most hours over the course of the summer.

Our SuccessCard is published to ensure parents, teachers, and advocates for high-quality public education have, at their fingertips, a detailed analysis of each legislative session, its impact on education outcomes, and an easy-to-understand report on how each member of the Tennessee General Assembly voted on the policies that drive student achievement.
