School Reform In The United States (1994)

A state-by-state overview of the latest education reform issues.  For the purposes of this analysis and to be consistent with popular sentiment, reform refers generally to four broad categories: school choice, contracting-out services to private entities, deregulation or decentralization (e.g.. charter schools), and accountability through strong academic assessment mechanisms.

Key issues that fall within these categories are charter schools, controlled choice, full choice, inter-district choice, intra-district choice, magnet schools, open enrollment, private contracting, private scholarship programs, public school choice, site-based management, tax credits, and vouchers, to name a few.
