2025 Early College Summit

This session will present findings from comprehensive analyses on the Early College High School model, highlighting extracurricular participation and academic rigor outcomes.  Using data from a longitudinal study conducted by SERVE Center at UNC-G, RTI International, and RAND, we will explore the unique impacts of ECHS programs on students' extracurricular engagement, classroom experiences, and homework.  Participants will engage with the research findings through interactive discussions.  These discussions will focus on understanding the differences between early colleges and traditional high school in these areas and the implications for program implementation and equity.
