Bridge Study SummaryBridge Study Summary
While educators and policymakers share the common goal of improving student performance, they often act in isolation; thus, efforts are sometimes conflicting or duplicated, and often certain needs are never addressed.

“As one smart person has observed, our educational systems are perfectly designed to produce the results we are typically getting.
“The kind of change that is required to accomplish more successful outcomes for many more students is not marginal change. It is transformational. It is change in the fundamental ways we do the business of education. It is change that requires strong leadership, relentless focus, and sustained effort over time.”
