SREB provides extensive information to assist education leaders and lawmakers in all 16 member states as they shape public policy in K-20 education. SREB's Education Policies team continually tracks trends and analyzes the progress of all 16 member states in every area addressed in the SREB Challenge to Lead goals.

SREB's policy researchers examine NAEP and state assessment results, higher education data and other key information from SREB education agencies, issue detailed reports on specific goals and topics, and recommend the policy changes and next steps that can help state education leaders and policy-makers improve student performance.


Teacher Policies


Most recently, the team focused on teacher effectiveness and developed a Policy Brief that brings together key findings on the components of comprehensive teacher evaluation models from top researchers and policy groups. Click here to download the Brief and other related SREB charts and reports that examine teacher policies in SREB states.

The team also has looked at gains in reading and mathematics achievement in the early grades and traced increases in student participation and success in Advanced Placement and International Baccalaureate programs. Additional topics include teen driving laws, dual enrollment and others.
