A 50 state look at the nation's governors and their leadership on education over the past year shows that Governors are focusing much of their attention on two critical areas of education policy--high school and preschool. At least 22 governors proposed significant policies last year aimed at improving high schools, or have made such proposals so far in 2006, "Education Week" found in preparing this special report. At least 20 governors began last year or have initiated in current legislative sessions pushes to expand pre-kindergarten for 4-year-olds or other early-childhood programs. This Education Week special report offers a detailed look at the leadership of governors in shaping their states' education agendas through legislation, regulatory action, public involvement, and proposal or endorsement of ballot measures. The 50-state table reflects the highlights of each governor's 2005 education proposals, the outcomes from that year-including the final actions from year-round legislative sessions-and updates on the governors' 2006 agendas and re-election status. The information in the state-by state-table was gathered during interviews by "Education Week" with governors' education advisers and other staff members, with legislative-staff members and through analyses of state budgets and other state government documents. Additional information, including an interactive map of the states, and a PDF copy of this report is available at www.edweek.org/governors/.
