Student Achievement

"Not everything that counts can be counted, and not everything that can be counted counts."
--Albert Einstein

"How’d ya do?" "What did you get?" are words spoken by students every minute of every school day. Student achievement is the goal of educational endeavors and is on the minds of everyone associated with schools and schooling. Teachers come to school every day to facilitate instruction that ensures student success. Parents send their children to school so that they might learn and develop into successful adults. Tax payers support good schools because they know they bring other positive influences into the community. Legislators fund schools and develop and support programs that aim to give all students the opportunity for success.

As an educational leader, you will be responsible for the success of the students in your district, region, or state—and all things that lead to that success: well-trained teachers using effective and cutting edge instructional strategies, data collection that informs instruction, collaborative relationships with parents and the community, and high expectations for all stakeholders.
Focus Questions:
Do high test scores equal student learning?
How does inequity impact student achievement?
What things are barriers to student success?
Does achievement include areas of development other than academic?
