Definition
- In the United States, the federal and state governments, as well as local taxpayers, have begun to put more emphasis on school accountability for student achievement, and schools have responded by implementing new teaching methods, using standards-based curricula, and helping students learn test-taking skills. However, these strategies do not address the noninstructional reasons why youth struggle to achieve in school. [Source: Encyclopedia of School Health; School Improvement Plans]
