Abstract | An in-depth examination of restructuring is provided in this policy brief, which shows how the meaning of "restructuring" changes according to the setting and participants involved. After a review of the current context of the restructuring movement, different types of reform efforts are described, which include restructuring of curriculum, instruction, and time; authority; provision of youth services; public financing; and student assessment. Examples of school and district restructuring efforts in Arizona, California, Nevada, and Utah and other states are described. A critical discussion of political, organizational, and technical/financial constraints to restructuring concludes that school and district goals, resources, and political and organizational contexts must be considered prior to deciding the extent and nature of educational change.
