Abstract | A transformation is going on at Dunbar High School. Administrators, parents, teachers, students, and community partners are excited about the new opportunities offered to students enrolled in the award-winning technology programs. But this was not the case more than a decade ago. In the fall of 2000, Dunbar High School in Fort Myers, Florida, USA, opened its doors with a diverse student population under the direction of Principal Carl Burnside. By 2004, enrollment had significantly declined, and the school had one of the highest percentages of low-performing and low-socioeconomic students in the district. In this article, the author discusses how Dunbar High School administrators and staff turned their struggling school around by offering students the opportunity to train in a professional learning environment and earn industry-level IT credentials.
