The reauthorization of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) by the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) made some significant changes to how schools are identified as "in improvement."
When a school is identified for Support and Improvement, at the beginning of the school year, schools are required to notify parents and families of enrolled students and take the following actions:
- Develop School Support and Improvement Plans
- Implement the plans for School Improvement
These requirements are significantly different than school improvement under the previous reauthorization of ESEA, the No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB).
