Assessment

How does one assess the quality/proficiency of a school/school district?

My local school district says that it is well above average. How would
that be measured?

But I notice that the local middle school has more than 50% of its students
on the honor roll. Reminds me of Lake Woebegone!

I caught a glimpse of a PBS program (Science Without Walls I think) which
mentioned a couple of reports:

A Nation at Risk

Science for All Americans

Anyone know anything about these reports? Quality? Availability?
