Abstract | Across the United States, schools and districts are redesigning high school toward the goal of better engaging and preparing students for success after graduation. This report highlights four innovation schools and districts--(1) Noble High School in Maine; (2) International High School at Langley Park in Maryland; (3) the Science and Math Institute and Tacoma Public Schools in Washington; and (4) Hampton City Schools in Virginia--all of which are taking unique approaches to prepare students for college and career within their local context. Importantly, what makes these programs successful goes beyond their focus on college and career readiness. Each school or district emphasizes the importance of small learning communities to connect with and support students; organizes learning based on the skills and knowledge students should have as members of the workforce and their community; emphasizes hands-on project-based learning; and/or embeds social and emotional learning or other student supports into the school day. These schools can serve as models for other communities working toward high school redesign. This report examines each school's or district's approach to high school redesign, including what they are doing differently and how they are measuring success. [This report builds on a previous report from the Center for American Progress, "High Schools of the Future: How States Can Accelerate High School Redesign" (ED586218).] (ERIC). |
