Abstract | The study evaluated the Personalized, Relevant, Engaged for Postsecondary (PREP) intervention implemented by Portland Public Schools (PPS) to promote student engagement in alternative high schools. The PREP intervention integrated three key components: project-based learning (PBL); career technical education (CTE), including certified CTE programs and career-related learning experiences (CRLEs); and social and emotional learning (SEL). The study examined the fidelity of implementation over two years using a pre-defined rubric. The study also used a comparative interrupted time series design to examine the effects of the intervention on measures of engagement and high school progression. The study found that PREP key components were implemented with adequate fidelity during the 2020-21 school year but not during the 2021-22 school year. Results from the impact study did not identify a statistically significant impact of the PREP intervention on retention and credit accumulation. However, the study found promising evidence that PREP may have decreased rates of severe absenteeism. The findings indicate that providing comprehensive assistance is crucial in helping opportunity youth. (As Provided). |
