Abstract	The Education Commission of the States presents an urban education policy framework that is guided by the firm conclusion that state and city leaders must develop a collaborative approach to improve the state and urban education system. Toward this end, the following recommendations are made: (1) raise the state's academic standards; (2) free up urban systems to pursue instructional strategies tailored to their students; (3) reallocate funds to allow urban districts to do their special jobs and link funding to fiscal accountability and reforms that clearly improve student achievement; (4) decentralize decision making and accountability to the local school level; (5) create more effective and efficient operating environments through new approaches to labor and management relations; and (6) work collaboratively to change both the state and urban school systems. A new American Urban School District that can inspire hope in young people and pride in the community is the goal of these reforms. (SLD)
