Fastest-Rising Challenge
November 01, 2019
State of the Superintendency

Improving the academic performance of underprepared students took on much greater importance as perceived by superintendents, more than any other challenge over a five-year period ending in 2018.
National surveys of superintendents conducted
by Gallup identified a 13-point increase in the percentage of superintendents who share that view. The problem seems especially acute for those in city or large districts. Two-thirds of city superintendents and large-district superintendents, compared
with 48 percent to 59 percent of superintendents in other types of districts, strongly agree that the No. 1 challenge is improving underprepared students’ performance.
