Quality Reviews

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. For more information, access our fact sheet.

SCHOOLWORKS® Virtual School Quality Reviews employ a transparent, research-based set of standards linked to positive student outcomes in order to evaluate the effectiveness of academic programs across all settings. They are conducted 100% remotely through a combination of document review, surveys, interviews, focus groups, and remote observation of classroom instruction. For more information, click here.

In addition to school quality reviews, we provide focused reviews such as special education program reviews, equity audits, curriculum reviews, instructional inventories, renewal site visits, monitoring site visits, and organizational assessments, as well as broader reviews such as district, network, and regional reviews.

SCHOOLWORKS® offers DEI-focused school and district Reviews that deliver a qualitative and quantitative analysis of effective implementation of policies and practices associated with fostering diverse, equitable, and inclusive environments for students and staff. These reviews utilize SchoolWorks School Quality Criteria (featuring Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion research) as an evidence base and are staffed with racially diverse teams of trained and highly qualified educators. Evidence collection typically includes document review, surveys, and interview/focus groups and may include classroom observation, an in-depth curriculum review, and/or supplemental research of best practices in comparative school and district environments.
