State Education Reforms (SER)

Welcome to the Website on State Education Reforms

This site, which draws primarily on data collected by organizations other than NCES, compiles and disseminates data on state-level elementary and secondary education reform efforts in five areas: Accountability, Assessment and Standards, Staff Qualifications and Development, State Support for School Choice and Other Options, and Student Readiness and Progress through School.

School finance is also an important area of educational reform. A few tables on this topic are included in the Accountability section. Additional state-level information on school finance is available in "Revenues and Expenditures for Public Elementary and Secondary Education", a report available at the NCES Education Finance Statistics Center.
