Key Ideas | Eighty-eight percent of Central Region educators surveyed by McREL in state and local meetings indicated that improving high school students' achievement was of great importance. To address this need, McREL researchers examined mean differences between 248 high-performing, high-needs (HPHN) schools and 40 low-performing, high-needs (LPHN) on each of nine identified factors. |
