\nThe University of Arkansas  \nwasfoundedin1871 as theflagshipinstitution of higher education forthe state of Arkansas.Establishedas a land grant university,itsmandate was threefold:to teachstudents,conduct research,andperform service and outreach.  \nThe College of Education and Health Professions established the Department of EducationReform in 2005.The department's mission is to advance education and economicdevelopment by focusing on the improvement of academic achievement in elementaryand secondary schools.It conducts research and demonstration projects in five primaryareas of reform:teacher quality,leadership,policy,accountability,and school choice.  \nThe School Choice Demonstration Project (SCDP),based within the Department ofEducation Reform,is an education research center devoted to the non-partisan studyof the effects of school choice policy and is staffed by leading school choice researchersand scholars.Led by Dr.Patrick J.Wolf,Distinguished Professor of Education Reformand Endowed 21st Century Chair in School Choice,SCDP's national team of researchers,institutional research partners and staff are devoted to the rigorous evaluation of schoolchoice programs and other school improvement efforts across the country.The SCDPis committed to raising and advancing the public's understanding of the strengths andlimitations of school choice policies and programs by conducting comprehensive researchon what happens to students,families,schools,and communities when more parents areallowed to choose their child's school.  \n# Making it Count:The
