Suspending Chicago's Students: Differences in Discipline Practicess across Schools
ISBN: 9780990956358 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 74 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Students' risk of suspension is more strongly determined by which school they attend than by their backgrounds-including their race, gender or income. A subset of Chicago schools-about a quarter of high schools and 10 percent of schools with middle grades-have very high suspension rates, and almost all of these schools predominantly serve African American students. These schools' students come from the poorest neighborhoods with the lowest incoming achievement; many have been victims of abuse or neglect. At high-suspending high schools, about half of students received a suspension in the...

What Matters for Staying On-Track and Graduating in Chicago Public High Schools: A Close Look at Course Grades, Failures, and Attendance in the Freshm
ISBN: 9780978738341 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 68 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Almost half of all Chicago Public School students fail to graduate, and in some CPS high schools more students drop out than graduate. It is a problem that can sometimes feel overwhelming to address because the causes of dropout are myriad and complex. What is often lost in discussions about dropping out is the one factor that is most directly related to graduation-students' performance in their courses. In this research report, CCSR authors Elaine Allensworth and John Q. Easton look into the elements of course performance that predict whether students will graduate and suggest what schools...

Turning Around Low-Performing Schools in Chicago
ISBN: 9780985681937 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 96 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The University of Chicago Consortium on Chicago School Research (UChicago CCSR) builds the capacity for school reform by conducting research that identifies what matters for student success and school improvement. This report finds that four years after undergoing dramatic reform efforts such as turnaround, very low-performing elementary schools in Chicago closed the gap in test scores with the system average by almost half in reading and two-thirds in math. The improvements took time to develop; test scores were not significantly better in the first year of reform, but grew larger over time....

Passing Through Science: The Effects of Raising Graduation Requirements in Science on Course-Taking and Academic Achievement in Chicago
ISBN: 9780981460475 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 60 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This report finds that a Chicago Public Schools (CPS) policy dramatically increasing science requirements for all students did not help them learn more science and actually may have hurt their college prospects. The science policy was part of a larger CPS initiative to expose all students to a college-preparatory curriculum by increasing course requirements across a range of subjects. To examine the effect of the 1997 policy change, the report compares academic outcomes for cohorts of students in Chicago before and after the policy switch. The new science policy did end low expectations for...

Looking Forward to High School and College: Middle Grade Indicators of Readiness in Chicago Public Schools
ISBN: 9780989799454 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 138 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Grades and attendance-not test scores-are the middle grade factors most strongly connected with both high school and college success. In fact, grades and attendance matter more than test scores, race, poverty, or other background characteristics for later academic success. This report follows approximately 20,000 Chicago Public Schools students as they transition from elementary to high school. It is designed to help answer questions about which markers should be used to gauge whether students are ready to succeed in high school and beyond. It also considers the performance levels students...

Student and Teacher Safety in Chicago Public Schools: The Roles of Community Context and School Social Organization
ISBN: 9780984507641 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 72 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This research report finds that students and teachers feel much safer in some Chicago Public Schools than others, and the best predictor of whether students and teachers feel safe is the quality of relationships inside the school building. The report, Student and Teacher Safety in Chicago Public Schools, found that schools serving students from high-crime, high-poverty areas tended to feel less safe; however, demographics were not deterministic of safety. In fact, disadvantaged schools with high-quality relationships actually felt safer than advantaged schools with low-quality relationships.
