Arkansas has submitted it’s application for Round Two of the Race to the Top grant.  The Dem-Gaz’s coverage can be found here. After finishing only 17th in the first round, it doesn’t appear that the State’s application has changed much, except that the amount of money requested this time is significantly less ($175 million).  Most notably, no changes have been made to Arkansas’ charter school law, which cost the state a significant amount of points in Round One.

The application can be found here.  Winners are to be announced in September.
