Accountability and Assistance System Feedback Opportunity

The Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education is interested in hearing from a broad range of stakeholders about Massachusetts' school and district accountability and assistance system. Coming changes in statewide assessments and federal law have provided us an opportunity to reconsider the principles of our current system, the data we use to measure school and district progress, and the types of supports and assistance we make available. We have launched an online statewide feedback form through which we will gather high-level feedback from a variety of stakeholders. The survey includes closed-ended questions about various priorities for the system as well as the opportunity to provide open-ended feedback on a number of guiding questions. The feedback form also includes a place to attach a letter or other written feedback instead or in addition to completing the form, if you would like to provide official comment from your organization. You may also send letters to esea@doe.mass.edu at any time. The form will be available through June 17, 2016. To access the feedback form, click here or use the following link: Accountability and assistance feedback 2016.
