The two-year evaluation of Turnaround Arts was conducted by Booz Allen Hamilton. It was led by a Principal Investigator from the University of Chicago Urban Education Institute and supported by a Research Associate trained in evaluating arts integration. The evaluation captured descriptive aspects of the use of high-quality and integrated arts education and analyzed outcome data to understand the impact of the use of the arts as a part of school turnaround. The evaluation drew upon diverse data including surveys, classroom observation, interviews, focus groups, document review, and analysis of student achievement, discipline and attendance data.
