Salem Community School Corporation is one of 38 school districts across the nation selected to participate in the Standard Bearer School District Network. Working through the Schlechty Center for Leadership in School Reform, the Standard Bearer School District Network is a national network of public school systems who use a set of standards for developing and assessing their capacity to support building-level and classroom-level change. 

The leaders of these districts and of CLSR share the belief that the focus of any reform effort must be on continuous improvement of the quality of the work provided to students, so that students can improve their own capacity to achieve academically and to learn continuously.

 Standard Bearer School Districts are committed to a common purpose: creating the conditions in schools and in communities to ensure that each student is provided with engaging work and that each student is provided the support he or she needs to do that work. The "bottom line" result to be achieved from this effort is a dramatic increase in the quality of performance by all students at all levels in the system.

The ten System Standards at the heart of the process have been developed by CLSR in partnership with the North Central Association and the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools.
