NCES activities are designed to address high priority education data needs; provide consistent, reliable, complete, and accurate indicators of education status and trends; and report timely, useful, and high quality data to the U.S. Department of Education, the Congress, the states, other education policymakers, practitioners, data users, and the general public.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
This work could not have been accomplished without the guidance, consultation, and support of many people. John Ralph, the project officer from the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), U.S. Department of Education asked thoughtful, penetrating questions and provided valuable advice and guidance from the study's conception to its fruition. Also at NCES, Marty Orland, while Associate Commissioner, played a key role in conceptualizing the project to which Val Plisko, now Associate Commissioner for Early Childhood, International and Crosscutting Studies, added her insightful perspective.
Several people contributed to the conception and the final product. NCES reviewers Marilyn McMillen, Shelley Burns, John Wirt and Ellen Bradburn provided detailed, discerning, and important comments. External advisors and reviewers provided us with helpful comments that helped sharpen the report's focus. For that we wish to thank Paul Barton, Educational Testing Service; Joyce Benjamin, Oregon Department of Education; Lorraine McDonnell, University of California, Santa Barbara; Jack Jennings, Center on Education Policy; Richard Murnane, Harvard University Graduate School of Education; and Meredith Phillips, UCLA School of Public Policy and Social Research.
At Mathematica Policy Research, David Myers provided critical suggestions concerning the study's direction and Paul Decker, author of the first indicator study in this series, contributed his unique perspective. Julia Kim was an early source of much background research that laid the groundwork for the completed report. Heather Hesketh and Emily Pas helped collect data and produce the tables for the report, Daryl Hall and Anne Kelleher helped edit it, and Felita Buckner and Alfreda Holmes helped produce the report. To each person, we extend our gratitude and appreciation.
