Do-Over or Double Down? Working toward a New K-12 Education Accountability Ecosystem
McShane, Michael Q.; DiPerna, Paul
EdChoice
What does it mean to hold schools accountable? How do we measure school performance? Why do we care? We convened focus groups of K-12 stakeholders to wrestle with these tough questions and help us better understand the current accountability landscape--where we've been as well as where we're headed. We've compiled what those focus group participants told us into this report, which we hope will be a springboard for additional discussions around the issue of K-12 accountability.
