Official Report from the Governor's Committee on Education Excellence:
Students First: Renewing Hope for California
In April 2005, Governor Schwarzenegger established The Governor's Committee on Education Excellence (GCEE) to recommend changes and reforms that would lead to a more effective education for California's students. The committee was charged with analyzing current conditions, best practices, and research to find ways to improve California's public school system, with a particular emphasis on governance, finance, teachers and administrators.

The committee's report, released March 14, calls for systemic reform that includes strengthening teaching and leadership, ensuring fair funding that rewards results, streamlining governance and strengthening accountability, using data wisely, and creating a foundation for continuous improvement. The full and official set of documents released by the committee are available for free download below. For more information about the GCEE, please see: http://www.everychildprepared.org/
