This report describes the attitudes of school superintendents in Kentucky about the implementation of school reforms based on the Kentucky Education Reform Act of 1990 (KERA); this survey also investigated changes in the perceptions of superintendents over the previous year related to the policies, programs, and practices of KERA. The study was conducted via a mail-out questionnaire sent to all 176 Kentucky school superintendents of whom 105 responded (60 percent). Specifically, the survey focused on the following issues: how the schools had changed since KERA; the most positive and the most negative effects; reliable measures for school improvement; how KERA-initiated programs were working; priorities for improving reform programs and practices; extent of superintendents' support for beliefs underlying KERA; perceived support for school reform; impact on the stress level of teachers, students, and school administrators; reactions to frequently recorded statements about the effects of KERA; and superintendents' positions on issues related to academic expectations, assessment options, accountability for student learning, and potential test options for the 1995-96 school year. Findings are reported on each of the focus questions. As a general evaluation, 80 percent of superintendents believed that schools had improved during the previous 5 years, and more than 90 percent did not want to return to pre-KERA policies and practices. The results are presented in 28 pages of tables. (NAV)
