This handbook is for state leaders who are designing or revising statewide systems of support for schools identified as low-performing, and for district and school leaders who are seeking to improve school performance. The handbook surveys the research related to statewide systems of support, presents the experience and insights of educational leaders in how such support can be organized, and suggests actionable principles for improving schools. Articles within the handbook provide a conceptual framework for thinking about a state system, profile activities in selected states, and tools that may be used to strengthen a statewide system of support.
