Connecting the Dots: Building Coherent Systems to Support Student Success

This session explored connections between accountability system redesign and school improvement by identifying important lessons learned from past state efforts to build linkages between these systems. WestEd researchers presented a model for statewide school accountability systems that connects accountability system design principles to school improvement actions, highlighting tensions that create challenges in implementing this model. Then, EdSystems researchers presented Chicago Public Schools’ new accountability system, detailing the system’s implementation and implications for future accountability redesign efforts.
