State-Wide Middle Level Implementation: Lessons Learned
Meeks, Gregory B.; Stepka, Terry H.
RMLE Online: Research in Middle Level Education, v29 n3 p1-17 2005
This paper examines the progress of one state in implementing the middle school concept. Results of a survey distributed in 1990 were compared to results of a similar survey distributed in the spring of 2004. Progress or the lack thereof has been noted. Implications from this survey can serve to heighten awareness and continue to improve the quality of middle level education. (Contains 1 figure and 10 tables.)
