Alaska’s New School Evaluation System
January 20, 2019
Tegan Hanlon reports for the Anchorage Daily News that the Alaska Department of Education has “flagged about a fifth of the state’s public schools as needing additional support under its new accountability system,” called the “System for School Success.” Like every other state, Alaska “had to build the new system to comply with the federal Every Student Succeeds Act, passed in 2015, and to continue receiving federal funds.”
