School Improvement
State chiefs are committed to doing what is necessary to improve outcomes for each and every student in each and every school.
The Council of Chief State School Officers (CCSSO) released the Principles of Effective School Improvement Systems to inform how states design effective systems to improve low-performing schools and provide an equitable education for all students. While continuous improvement in all schools is critical, state education leaders are taking the lead to create change that will drive dramatic improvement for students attending lowest-performing schools and those with the greatest achievement gaps.
CCSSO supports school improvement in states by fostering a sense of urgency among chiefs that the SEA plays a central role in improving persistently low-performing schools, equipping all states with strategies and approaches to meet the needs of all children, and fast-tracking efforts in states who are willing to take bold, relentless action to address persistent low-performance.
