We’ve all had the experience of truly purposeful, authentic learning and know how valuable it is. Educators are taking the best of what we know about learning, student support, effective instruction, and interpersonal skill-building to completely reimagine schools so that students experience that kind of purposeful learning all day, every day.
USC Hybrid High, just two years old, is looking like a phoenix rising from the ashes these days.
The school made several changes—new school leadership, a renewed focus on teachers, actionable data, and a school culture that integrates social-emotional and academic growth—after a difficult first year. (Read EdSurge’s take on the challenges and my summary of lessons learned from USC Hybrid High along with three other next gen schools.)
The changes are paying off—most notably for students.
In this interactive infographic, USC Hybrid High shares early results showing gains on California’s Academic Performance Index, ACT scores, and NWEA’s MAP. A remarkable year indeed.
