Research In, Research Out: The Role of Research in the Development and Scale-Up of Success for All
Abstract/Description
Success for All (SFA) is a comprehensive reform program for elementary schools. Intended to ensure students’ success in reading by preventing them from falling behind in the early grades, SFA provides schools with extensive professional development in reading instructional methods with strong evidence of effectiveness, as well as student reading materials designed to facilitate daily use of research-based instruction. The program also includes cross-grade grouping strategies, parent involvement programs, and one-to-one tutoring for struggling students. SFA was intended to be an example of what education reform would be like if it were based on evidence and then continually evaluated itself to progressively improve. In any event, SFA has instituted several new efforts to enhance feedback loops between the foundation and all of its member schools. SFA is one of a small set of replicable programs with strong evidence of effectiveness, and many more will be validated in the coming years.
