* The Comprehensive School Reform Quality Center (CSRQ)
The CSRQ was established at the American Institutes for Research, through a grant from the U.S. Department of Education, and operated from 2003 to 2006. The CSRQ sought to provide advice and support to educators and decision-makers in the U.S. in terms of comprehensive school reform models.
