| Abstract: | The article discusses the evolving landscape of school accountability in the United States, emphasizing the integration of qualitative assessments alongside traditional quantitative measures like standardized test scores. It highlights initiatives in various states, particularly Maryland, which has launched an ambitious school review program involving classroom observations and stakeholder interviews to provide a comprehensive evaluation of school quality. The article also notes that while in-person school inspections are common in charter schools and some districts, practices vary widely across the country, and the effectiveness of these inspections in driving school improvement remains a topic of debate among experts.
