| Annotation: | This research adds to growing evidence on high-performing, high-poverty schools by looking closely at the practices
of a small number of such schools across Kentucky.
Using the standardized school audit instrument
developed by the state Department of Education,
researchers sought to answer two questions:
1. What common characteristics that seem to
contribute to high student performance are
shared by a set of high-performing, high-poverty
schools?
2. What characteristics and practices
differentiate a set of high-performing, high-poverty
schools with a small achievement
gap from similar high-poverty schools that
are neither high-performing nor have a small
achievement gap? |
