GOALBOOK: $915K to Palo Alto-based Goalbook in seed round led by NewSchools Venture Fund (which chipped in $200K), with Rethink Education, Ed-Mentor, Patient Capital Collaborative, Greg Gunn, Steve Shulman, and Joe Gleberman participating. Part of Imagine K12's first graduating class, Goalbook helps schools and teachers manage Individual Learning Plans (ILPs) for special education students by providing a platform that includes student profiles, communication services, progress charts, and document service deliveries. Announced with the funding are plans for a "Goal Bank," an online set of assessments and resources specifically for special-ed teachers. (Note: NewSchools is also an investor in EdSurge.)
