Quality Reviews

A virtual school quality review employs a transparent, research-based set of standards linked to positive student outcomes in order to evaluate the effectiveness of academic programs across all settings – remote, in-person, or hybrid. It is conducted 100% virtually, through a combination of document review, surveys, interviews, focus groups, and remote observation of classroom instruction. Check out this fact sheet to learn more.

SchoolWorks provides objective on-site Quality Reviews of academic programs conducted through document review, classroom observation, and interviews/focus groups.  During our reviews, school practices are measured against SchoolWorks Quality Criteria – a research-based set of standards linked to positive student outcomes. Each review includes a verbal and written report that identifies strengths and areas of need to inform improvement planning.
