Social science researchers have long debated various indicators of education progress and quality. Measures of educational quality are diverse and vary greatly depending on the age-group of interest and geography. This analysis attempts to identify a small number of indicators to address this issue, particularly as they relate to the overall educational quality of a specific geographical area. We also attempt to make each measure relevant to a distinct and exclusive segment of the population. Ultimately, we are interested in providing a summary measure as a single comprehensive indicator, or “overall educational quality score.”
