College and Career Readiness for All Students

"The higher the standards that are targeted, the clearer it becomes that the only way to take the students to those standards is early intervention and a long-term focus on improving the fundamentals of teaching and learning. Setting lower standards and targeting short-term incremental test score gains, on the other hand, often tempts educators into shortsighted 'quick-fix' practices."

—Chrys Dougherty, Lynn Mellor, and Nancy Smith, National Center for Educational Achievement
