Finance and Resources Issues in High School Reform (2003)

Synopsis

This report summarizes discussions between education and youth development leaders regarding the need to address financial and resource issues in high school reform. These topics were identified as being serious obstacles to meaningful reform in the 2000 American Youth Policy Forum report, High Schools of the Millennium. Inside, the reader will find participants’ thoughts on how education reformers might address challenges in four distinct areas: 1) allocation and alignment of resources to support standards-based reform and higher expectations for all students, 2) generating resources for the interventions and specialized programs necessary to support the learning of students with special needs, 3) allocating resources to support learning in alternative education settings, and 4) developing funding strategies for dual enrollment programs.
