Summary: (abstract from www.earlycolleges.org) Experience a day in the life of students and teachers at Toledo Early College High School, Lorain County Early College High School, and Dayton Early College Academy. They?re stories of triumph and frustration, progress, and setbacks. Told by writers who observed the schools first-hand throughout the 2005-06 school year, they capture the reality behind the statistics, reports, and debate to reveal how new approaches to high school education are touching lives.
Use: Written by outside observers, this resource describes three early colleges, each in a different year of operation. This has been included in the operations and finance section to provide stakeholders with a framework and view of an early college in the first, second, and third year of operation. It is important to notice the differences and use that knowledge in planning.
