School Reform & Dropout Prevention: Promising Practices

A Dropout Crisis for Girls: Promising Practices

Recently, NWLC released a report on the high school dropout crisis for girls called When Girls Don't Graduate, We All Fail: A Call to Improve High School Graduation Rates for Girls. Now, we're working with schools, community organizations, and policy makers to identify "promising practices" that schools can use to keep students from dropping out.

We will be posting stories about some of theinnovative and successful programs that we find. By sharing these stories with you, we hope we can better educate each other about programs that help students stay in school.
