Laurene Powell Jobs, philanthropist and widow of Apple cofounder Steve Jobs, has committed $50 million to XQ: The Super School Project http://xqsuperschool.org/challenge , an effort looking to redefine and reimagine high school education in the U.S.

The project is a competition-based endeavor, giving teams the chance to dream up what an effective, innovative high school would look like. The months-long competition to modernize high schools will end with several teams receiving funding to make their proposals a reality.
