Data were generously provided by the collaborating district, Worcester Public Schools, and Advanced Systems. This study would not have been possible without the very helpful support of Gerri Williamson, Patricia Mostue, and Jim Caradonio of the district offices ofthe Worcester Public Schools. Kevin Sweeney of Advanced Systems provided information about the MCAS data files. Most notably, this work was done in collaboration with Gene Hoffman and his colleagues at HumRRO. The design of the analyses and the text of the report drew heavily on validity work previously conducted by them1. Their thoughtful advice made this work possible. Of course, any remaining shortcomings are the responsibility of the author.
