`If the goal of all students reaching high standards is to be met, Using Data to Close the Achievement Gap should be required reading for all teachers and administrators. It should also be an integral part of the course of study for those preparing to teach in the United States' - Vinetta C Jones, Dean, School of Education, Howard University One of the primary goals behind the standards and accountability movement is to narrow the achievement gap between low-income, minority, and other students.
