Quality IndicatorsAccountability Programs :

Quality Indicators is a self-assessment model to help schools evaluate components of their educational programming: curriculum; instruction; assessments and use of results; staff development; engaging families and community; leadership and governance; and planning and resources. For each indicator, schools declare a level of implementation: 1) “no systemwide approach” 2) “early development” 3) “full development of a systemwide approach” 4) “full implementation” and 5) “evaluation and improvement of the plan and its implementation.” Results of the Quality Indicators evaluation are intended to help schools make informed decisions in regard to school improvement initiatives.
