ESSA Accountability

ESSA Accountability refers to the framework established by the Every Student Succeeds Act to evaluate school performance. It requires states to set specific goals for student achievement, graduation rates, and college or career readiness. Schools are assessed based on these metrics, and their results determine support needs or recognition. The aim is to ensure all students have equitable access to quality education and to identify and improve schools that are underperforming, fostering continuous improvement across the education system.
