Transforming a Statewide System of Support: The Idaho Story

E-newsletter: 
November 2010

The Center on Innovation and Improvement (CII) released a case study of the Idaho State Department of Education (IDE). The report provides a case example of how a state can quickly and dramatically alter its approach to providing support for school improvement, building upon internal capacity and external resources. Idaho's story also illustrates the complex nature of state-level change and highlights certain triggers and conditions that can help other states to engage in rapid state-level improvement.
