High Schools That Work

A Look at Accountability for Secondary Vocational Education

by Gene Bottoms and Richard Makin

This report is intended to help state leaders review the system they have or plan the system they need for accountability in secondary vocational education. Drawing heavily on lessons learned during 11 years of the Southern Regional Education Board's High Schools That Work initiative, the report addresses the questions posed to HSTW staff by several state legislators: "What does accountability look like for secondary vocational education?" To answer this question, it is important to consider the purpose of secondary vocational education.

Keywords: secondary vocational education, educational accountability, technical literacy, senior project.
