"In Holistic Accountability, Reeves succeeds in recasting the accountability dilemma into a win-win plan for school administrators who are weary of the test score sweepstakes and for policy makers who are demanding results. It is an excellent approach?one that is sound, reasonable, comprehensive, and relevant. The accompanying sample accountability reports are very useful."
?School Business Affairs, October 2002
