Establishing a College Culture in Secondary Schools through P-20 Collaboration: A Case Study
Jarsky, Karen McClafferty; McDonough, Patricia M.; Nunez, Anne-Marie
Journal of Hispanic Higher Education, v8 n4 p357-373 2009
This case study examines a P-20 action research partnership involving a university, a nonprofit organization, and several middle and high schools with sizeable enrollments of underserved students. The partnership's goals were rooted in a cultural change model designed to encourage college awareness and attendance among largely Latino and African American students. The research reveals the barriers and opportunities inherent in a collaborative model from the perspective of school counselors and administrators. (Contains 1 note.)
