The National Center on Scaling Up Effective Schools announces its first national conference on identifying practices of highly effective high schools and the process of scaling up those practices. In keeping with the center's mission, which is to develop, implement, and evaluate processes to scale up effective high school practices, the purpose of the conference is to bring together empirical research on the policies, practices, and processes that are related to positive student outcomes, including achievement, high school graduation, and college access, particularly for low income, racial minority, and English language learner student populations. We are pleased to announce that our keynote speaker is
