The American Youth Policy Forum, in collaboration with Digital Promise’s League of Innovative Schools, visited New Hampshire to both see work in action and discuss some of the keys that districts must consider and explore the interaction with district and state in terms of capacity building and policy. Our study tour included a combination of school visits, discussions, and debriefs and we have selected the following core topics to explore throughout trip:
- Assessment and Accountability
