Directs the Secretary in selecting such contractors to take into account whether their programs would emphasize development of leadership skills identified by graduate schools of management and of education.

Requires contracts under this Act to: (1) assure involvement of private sector managers and executives; (2) assure ongoing organizational commitment through obtaining matching funds, making in-kind contributions, demonstrating commitment to continue after expiration of funding under this Act, and organizing a policy advisory committee (which would include representatives from business, private foundations, LEAs, and SEAs); (3) demonstrate the level of development of human relations skills which its programs will instill; and (4) establish a system of program evaluation.
