Burden Hours: 11,997.
Abstract: This evaluation assesses the
accomplishments of the Comprehensive
School Reform (CSR) program in
implementing school reform and
thereby improving student achievement.
The evaluation also makes a preliminary
assessment of the conditions
influencing the sustainability of reforms
once federal CSR funding ends. The
evaluation uses a variety of data sources
to understand the complex interplay of
state policies, school districts,
educational support, and CSR school
conditions affecting CSR
implementation and outcomes. The
major evaluation questions are: (1) To
what extent have CSR-supported
schools made gains on state assessments
in comparison to gains for schools in the
same state with similar characteristics;
(2) How effective is CSR support for
reform; (3) How have district policies
and state policies affected CSR
implementation and comprehensive
school reform; (4) What implications
can be drawn from CSR implementation
and outcomes for reform in Title I
schoolwides; and (5) How effective are
various school reform activities in
secondary schools, and to what extent
can school progress be linked to
comprehensive school reform. A mixed
method approach will be used to collect
appropriate data for addressing each
evaluation question. The methods
include mail surveys of 500 CSR
program and non-CSR program schools,
online surveys of 50 states and 65
school districts, and case studies of 40
‘‘sites’’ to produce an understanding of
the dynamic of the actual relationships
among school, district, and state actions,
policies, and practices (each ‘‘site’’
consists of a CSR school and matched
comparison school as well as the
district, state, and support infrastructure
in which the schools operate).
Evaluators will be able to link
information from these various sources
in order to provide policymakers and
other stakeholders with coherent
findings.
