Progress: Collecting data on minority group isolation and student achievement has posed challenges for the Department. The data on the performance reports are self-reported, and the objectives for reducing minority group isolation are set by the grantee. Few applications provided baseline data on student achievement. An evaluation to be completed in 2003 will report on the extent to which some magnet schools reduced minority group isolation and met their achievement objectives. |
