The Obama administration's Race to the Top education competition is getting a facelift.
Education Secretary Arne Duncan says Wednesday that school districts across the country, in addition to state governments, will be able to seek federal dollars as part of the competition. Duncan has told a committee meeting of the U.S. Conference of Mayors in Washington that details about how the competition will work are still being hammered out.
