The National High School Center is part of a national network of Content
and Regional Comprehensive Centers funded by the U. Department of Education
to help build the capacity of states across the nation to effectively
implement the provisions and goals of the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001
(NCLB). In recent years
a range of voices, from principals' groups to the National Governors'
Association, have called for more attention to be paid to the challenges
facing the nation's high schools. The High School Center will offer
user-friendly products and high leverage technical assistance services to
build the capacity of the Regional Comprehensive Centers to help states
implement these programs and tools in more high schools across the country.
AIR will subcontract with several other leading education research
organizations to establish the High School Center, including MDRC, Learning
Point Associates, the National Center for Educational Accountability (NCEA),
WestEd, the National Dropout Prevention Center/Network (NDPC/N), and the
National Dropout Prevention Center for Students with Disabilities (NDPC-SD) at
Clemson University.
