Abstract	A quality program of education within the schools produces individuals capable of (1) using their talents and abilities to the maximum of their potential, (2) continuing their educational development, (3) participating actively and positively in the world of work, (4) engaging in problem solving at abstract and at concrete levels, and (5) developing a positive pattern of values. Ten keys to quality education so defined are high quality staffs, programs designed to maximize the educational attainment of all the people in the community, specialized personnel and instructional services, modern instructional media, experimentation and innovation, systematic and organized evaluation and research, supporting services and personnel, stimulating physical facilities, community support and understanding, and adequate financial support. While substantial evidence suggests that the quality level of a school or district is directly related to the extent to which these conditions are available, the burden of proof lies in performance measures such as continuous progress, retention rates, student achievement gains, average daily attendance patterns, job preparation results, citizen responsibility and community support patterns, unemployment rates, and delinquency and divorce rates.
