| Abstract | Ten alternative high schools serving a total of 2,750 students in New York City were evaluated in terms of their administration, programs, student body, and specific educational objectives. Three main types of programs were in operation at the schools. These included: (1) Remediation with emphasis on basic skills in reading, mathematics and English as a Second Language, (2) Full academic education with progress toward accumulation of credits toward a city-wide High School Diploma, and (3) Experiential education at five of the schools. This emphasized external education such as unpaid courses in community organizations and paid cooperative work-study programs as alternate weeks in school and in industry. This evaluation report showed that gains for the program included fairly strong attendance, some gains in reading for all schools, exposure of several thousand students to the process of course self-selection four times a year, hundreds of others to career exploration and graduation for hundreds more as well as signs of improved attitudes. Appendices include evaluation instruments used in the programs and brief sketches of the independent alternative schools evaluation. (Author/PR) |
