Session Submission Summary

Effective High Schools: Insight From the National Center on Scaling Up Effective Schools

Tue, April 17, 2:15 to 3:45pm, Vancouver Convention Centre, Floor: Second Level, East Room 10

Session Submission Type: Symposium

Abstract

The National Center on Scaling Up Effective Schools is an IES-sponsored consortium of five universities, two urban districts, and an intervention support provider. The Center is focused on identifying the programs, practices, and processes that make some high schools in large urban districts particularly effective with low-income students, minority students, and English language learners and transferring these practices to less effective schools. This symposium is focused on the Center’s initial research efforts to identify the practices that lead to greater than expected learning gains for low-income students, minority students, and English language learners.
