Summary
Education Sciences Reform Act of 2002 - Establishes in the Department of Education an Academy of Education Sciences, consisting of: (1) an Office of the Director; (2) a National Board for Education Sciences; (3) a Knowledge Utilization Office; and (4) National Education Centers, including ones for Education Research, Education Statistics, and Education Evaluation, and their respective Commissioners to be appointed by the Academy's Director. Regional Educational Technical Assistance Act - Directs the Secretary of Education to establish, oversee, and coordinate a nationwide network of regional entities to provide comprehensive applied educational research, development, and technical assistance to other appropriate entities in education technology and the core academic areas of reading, math, and science. Transfers to this Act confidentiality protections from the National Education Statistics Act of 1994 (which are currently applicable only to the National Center for Education Statistics) in a revised form to cover all individually identifiable information that has been collected or retained under this Act. Transfers from such Act to this Act provisions relating to the National Assessment Governing Board and the National Assessment of Educational Progress. Repeals: (1) the National Education Statistics Act of 1994 (title IV of the Improving America's Schools Act of 1994); (2) parts A through E and J through N of the Educational Research, Development, Dissemination, and Improvement Act of 1994 (title IX of the Goals 2000: Educate America Act); and (3) specified provisions under the Department of Education Organization Act.
