Successful Strategies to Maximize Secondary School Results
How does a low income, high poverty small-town school with a diverse student population defy the academic outcomes predicted by research? Join a stellar boots-on-the-ground team from the highly acclaimed Pass Christian High School to learn how a sequence of strategies has enabled Pass High students to rise to the top and sustain this position year after year. Featured in the ASCD book, Disrupting Poverty, student results indicate that building relationships and embracing a shared set of beliefs translates into actions which brings about consistently high performance.
