State-level Information Available on arts education, computer-based assessments, and graduation rates

New state-level data on charter schools, arts education, computer-based assessments, and graduation rates are now available on the State Education Reforms website. The State Education Reforms website draws primarily on data collected by organizations other than the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), which compiles and disseminates the information in five sections:

• Accountability;
• Assessment and Standards;
• Staff Qualifications and Development;
• State Support for School Choice and Other Options; and
• Student Readiness and Progress through School.

One table was updated in the “Accountability” section. The “Staff Qualifications and Development” and “State Support for School Choice and Other Options” sections each had two updated tables.  One table was added in the “Assessment and Standards” section and in the “Student Readiness and Progress through School” section.  These tables may be easily located by the “Updated!” and “New!” tags next to the table title in the corresponding section.
