MARYLAND BUSINESS ROUNDTABLE FOR EDUCATION

 

SCHOOL ACCOUNTABILITY

MBRT believes that measurement must count for something and teaching must have results.

MBRT believes that a system built on high standards requires consequences based on demonstrated performance.

MBRT believes that school boards and school systems must be ready to reward and support schools that take effective initiative, help those struggling to meet new standards, and make fundamental changes in schools that are not improving.

MBRT believes that student performance data should be regularly reported in formats easily understood by parents and educators.

MBRT provided support in the legislature for the Governor's budget requests that provided the financial rewards to schools, and informed local chambers of commerce, legislators, and the media so they could recognize and support the efforts of successful schools in their districts.
