New Measure is a group of education consultants, school practitioners, and technologists who share one purpose in this age of accountability and No Child Left Behind (NCLB)---improved student achievement through best practice professional development! We are dedicated to helping individual schools, districts, and consortiums to build "Best Practice Professional Learning Communities" through more enlightened and effective approaches to professional development. Specifically, we support school leadership teams by helping them to:
- Transform their traditional district or school web sites into school improvement portals.
- Design and implement more effective professional development practices.
- Measure the effect of professional development efforts on instruction, leadership, and student learning.
- Equip educators with high tech communication tools.
- Increase their faculty knowledge building and sharing efforts.
- Educate the public on the "New Work of Professional Educators."

Our mission "Shared Learning. Shared Results." is realized not only through our technology tools. It is realized by honoring and respecting the remarkable achievements of today's teachers and administrators. We believe that educators embrace educational accountability but are also able to see the superficial emphasis on test scores and punitive sanctions as naive fixes that fail. They also recognize that the media will never report in a coherent manner the effects of their extraordinary efforts. At New Measure we equip all school personnel with tools, strategies, and practices to bring the real story of accountability and results to their local community.
Visit Our Tools and consider how your school district's web site supports improved student achievement and professional practices.
