Abstract
This symposium brings together four teams of researchers examining disparities in postsecondary readiness, matriculation, and persistence, as well as programs and policies aimed at eliminating those disparities. Three of the four teams are involved in formal research-practice partnerships (RPPs) with school districts and will share their perspectives on how those partnerships have shaped their work and how their research has impacted policy and practice in their local context.
