have provided school communities with the tools to become “assessment

tinuous school improvement. His conceptual
framework emphasizes teamwork, goals,
performance data, accelerating results, and
drawing on the knowledge base, as well as
the need to act through broad‐based leader‐
ship. All conference participants will receive
