At this point, preliminary data offer some clear indications about the following issues: 

• awareness and understanding of social responsibility and the performance standards 
• use of the performance standards by staff and students 
• perceptions of students, parents, and staff about the level of social responsibility in the school 
• changes in student levels of social responsibility as measured by the performance standards 

These results in this section are tentative, based on data available up to April 6, 2001. Data has been collected through a variety of qualitative and quantitative methods, including interviews, observations, surveys, and performance ratings. Student writing and drawing samples have been collected and used to illustrate various aspects of the data, but these have not been systematically analyzed at this point. 

Additional information will be collected between April and June 2001; as well, some existing data—specifically, student writing and drawing samples—will be analyzed during that time. This section of the report will be revised and amplified during July-August 2001.
