Through national research, we have identified a common set of success factors in higher-performing Honor Roll schools and districts. These include clear, specific learning objectives aligned to college and career readiness, along with:
· Evidence-based instructional practices
· A defined system-wide mission of college and career readiness for all students
· An investment in human capital
· Maintenance of data and assessment systems to monitor school and student performance
· Resources and guidance to support schools' efforts in preparing all students for college and career
From all of us at ERP and CBEE, we thank you for your hard work and commitment to improving student outcomes. We are proud to tell your story and promote your success!
