The EAB: Past, Present and Future
Regulatory Questions
• How does the EAB’s oversight process help schools advance over time and lead to better student satisfaction and learning results?
• Can there ever be a sustained and rational school advancement process without a defined strategic/institutional plan, which sets goals, creates action steps, measures results and evaluates progress?
• How does school approval, renewal, and school visit processes need to be designed to focus on results & to encourage and support school advancement?
• What data would schools and states need to collect and analyze so schools are accountable for student outcomes?

The EAB: Past, Present and Future
Underlying Principles
• The best way to protect students is to hold schools accountable for results data and enhance the schools and their programs.
• An IE model supports a cooperative working relationship between the regulatory agency and the schools for better student results.
• An IE model focuses on schools developing their own capabilities for data decision making, value-added services, and continuous improvement.
