| Short Description: | This five-part tool (one of the College Pathways series) was developed to help anyone with a stake in improving high schools assess the extent to which a school has adopted
practices that researchers have discovered in high-performing high schools. The tool presents four key components, along with indicators of good practice, found in a group of high schools whose low-income students
of color are “beating the odds." |
| Annotation: | This five-part tool (one of the College Pathways series) was developed to help anyone with a stake in improving high schools assess the extent to which a school has adopted
practices that researchers have discovered in high-performing high schools. The tool presents four key components, along with indicators of good practice, found in a group of high schools whose low-income students
of color are “beating the odds”: although they entered ninth grade with well-below-grade level skills and test scores, almost 70 percent of these students graduate four years later planning to attend college or technical school (see sidebar). |
