Educational Leadership in an Age of Accountability explores these changes in Virginia, following its implementation of an ambitious accountability plan that called for standards of learning, statewide high-stakes tests, standards of accreditation, and annual school performance report cards. This book examines factors such as the fate of students who fail state tests, achievement differences between black and white students, ethical issues surrounding accountability measures, and the increasing politicization of local schooling. Educational Leadership in an Age of Accountability shows that accountability pressure has done more than previous reforms to foster instructional leadership. 410 0$aSUNY series in educational leadership. 606 $aEducational leadership$zVirginia 606 $aEducational accountability$zVirginia 606 $aSchool improvement programs$zVirginia 615 0$aEducational leadership 615 0$aEducational accountability 615 0$aSchool improvement programs 676 $a379.1/58/09755 701 $aDuke$b Daniel Linden$0890605 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910962459803321 996 $aEducational leadership in an age of accountability$94364133 997 $aUNINA
