Happy New Year everyone. Just wanted to alert you all that Edweek’s annual Quality Counts special report, complete with state-by-state grades based on six education indicators, will be released Thursday (embargo lifts at 12:01 a.m.). The report has a special theme this year on School Safety, Discipline, and Climate, which is particularly timely (though it has been months in the planning). There’s a lot of great stuff in the themed content, on the research, trends, models and best practices, school design, role of counselors, and student-centered approaches.
Nirvi Shah was the main reporter on the report…
If you would like to access content in advance under embargo, please let me know and I’ll get you the info  you need.
