Education Study

I wanted to start a study at my school last year but constructing lecture notes and powerpoints for my sections at TCC took that time.  I am trying to narrow the focus of the topic that I chose, which will be something like "Do Scores tell the Story? AYP Stigma and its Effects on School Climate and Performance, A Two Year Study".  I am constructing surveys and gathering the information for the study.  It is still in the formulative stage.  I am anxious to see if a school reputation among the parents and community spreads into the school and effects climate and therefore the performance of the students. I certainly knows it effects the performance of the teachers.  That will be another survey.  If anyone does view this blog and has any ideas,please leave me a comment.
