School-Level Implementation of Standards-Based Reform: Findings from the Follow-up Public School Survey on Education Reform.
Heid, Camilla; Webber, Ann
This report presents the results of the Follow-up Public School Survey on Education Reform, which examined the implementation of the key provisions in the reauthorized Title I Act. The survey is one of many national assessments of Title I and was adapted from the Public School Survey on Education Reform. The instrument was administered to a nationally representative sample of public elementary and secondary school principals during the 1997-98 school year and is intended as a snapshot of the general characteristics of Title I schools, principals' perceptions of school reform, and how Title I and non-Title I schools compare in terms of their reform efforts. The findings indicate that the implementation of reforms had begun but principals may not perceive the need for substantial change. Accountability provisions are being implemented. Fifty-nine percent of all schools in the survey received Title I funds, and over half of Title I principals reported a high level of familiarity with the Title I reforms, yet most indicated that little change is needed to implement key reform strategies. The survey instrument, along with a breakdown of responses, appears in a 204-page appendix. Statistics and findings are presented in 56 tables. (RJM)
