Education in Utah: A Call to Action.
Utah State Board of Education, Salt Lake City.
Recommendations of the Utah Education Reform Steering Committee are presented in this report. First, the recommendations are briefly summarized and challenges facing the State's provision of education are outlined. Next, specific recommendations are made in the following areas: elementary and secondary education; higher education; and facilities, growth, and productivity. The cost of the recommendations is then summarized and State revenue measures are suggested. Specific recommendations are then presented for legislative and policy changes at the State and local levels. In general, the reforms proposed in the report call for increased government spending in education and improvements in the quality of instruction offered to the public. Emphasis is placed on reducing costs per student while maintaining achievement standards, and on improving teachers' career development and compensation. A list of the members of the committee concludes the report. (KH)
