Abstract: This note suggests that it is sometimes possible to apply true experimental designs in field settings by takmg advantage of the constraints under which programs or experimental treatments must operate. In a research study requiring classical treatment and control groups, practical methods for implementing true experimental procedures in public schools had to be devised and applied. These solutions to a problem often encountered by evaluators are presented here.
