Abstract | This report is one of nine detailed case studies of small urban high schools that served as the foundation for the Education Resource Strategies (ERS) report "Strategic Designs: Lessons from Leading Edge Small Urban High Schools." These nine schools were dubbed "Leading Edge Schools" because they stand apart from other high schools across the country in designing new ways to "do school" while outperforming most high schools in their local districts. Leading Edge Schools deliberately create high-performing organizational structures, or Strategic Designs, that deliberately organize people, time, and money to advance their specific instructional models--the set of decisions the schools make about how they organize and deliver instruction. They create these Strategic Designs through four interconnected practices: (1) Clearly defining an instructional model that reflects the schools' vision, learning goals, and student population; (2) Organizing people, time, and money to support this instructional model by (a) investing in teaching quality, (b) using student time strategically, and (c) creating individual attention for students; (3) Making trade-offs to invest in the most important priorities when faced with limits on the amount, type, and use of people, time, and money; and (4) Adapting their strategies in response to lessons learned and changing student needs and conditions. ERS hopes that these case studies will serve multiple purposes: (1) to generate ideas about implementing strategies in schools; (2) to help develop new small schools; (3) to reform existing schools; and (3) to engage colleagues, principals, and teachers in conversations about what is possible in their districts. Appended are: (1) Resource Strategies; (2) Boston Arts sample student schedules; (3) Boston Arts sample teacher schedule; (4) Boston Arts graduation requirements; and (5) Boston Arts staff list. (Contains 6 figures and 14 notes.) (ERIC). |
