    • Abstract:
      The accountability required by school-reform measures such as No Child Left Behind has placed increased emphasis on data analysis for appraising schools, administrators, teachers, and students. The focus of accountability-driven initiatives is developing policies and procedures that collectively influence the district, the school, and most important, the classroom. The Wallace Foundation has awarded grants focused on enhancing educational leadership in data-based decision-making. The foundation's State Action for Education Leadership Project II (SAELP II) awarded grants to state departments of education in Ohio, New Mexico, and Michigan to develop school leaders' data-based decision-making. This article describes the progress and potential of those initiatives.
