Rethinking the Federal Role in Elementary and Secondary Education: Summaries of Commissioned Papers (Report - Full)

Author(s): CEP

In 2008 and 2009, the Center on Education Policy (CEP) commissioned a series of major papers to assist in rethinking the federal role in elementary and secondary education. Authors were asked to review areas of activity in which the federal government has been involved over the past half century, determine the purposes of the federal programs, examine the evidence of their effect on education, and make recommendations for the future role of the federal government in public education. CEP also convened a series of public forums to discuss many of the papers. Later in 2009, the Center on Education Policy will issue a set of recommendations for President Obama and the Congress for shaping the federal role in elementary and secondary education. These recommendations will draw upon the evidence based analysis presented in these papers. This document contains summaries of the papers arranged by order of commission. Full papers can be found on under "Rethinking the Federal Role" tab on the left side of CEP’s home page.
