• Workshops, Customized Contracts, Technical Assistance and Support:  Assisting with compliance requirements of all state and federal program areas, including grants

Accountability Leadership Network
The District Accountability Leadership Network is a committee of superintendent-appointed individuals. Members receive current national, state, and local information on all areas supporting accountability. The goal of the network is to identify trends and issues affecting districts, to give feedback on services provided by Region 4 ESC, and to network with other professionals.
