2. How did we get here?
With the passage of ESSA and the end of NCLB, states were given the opportunity to design their own accountability plan within some established parameters.
In ND, we have valued growth of students immensely. We asked to have growth be a part of our accountability plan – that request was accepted.
Then began the birth of the “choice ready” conversation.
