This On Point is for all teachers who want to explore issues around homeless children. Students who experience homelessness are people first. Like their peers, they have unique hopes, dreams, cultural heritages, abilities, disabilities, and unique personality traits. As urban schools become more sophisticated in developing their support systems for students, it is important that systems stress personalization rather than generalization. The authors discussed that homelessness is a serious... - 1/1/06 - National Institute for Urban School Improvement,, Equity Alliance at ASU

Millions of children historically have failed in American school systems, particularly children of color from urban and rural low socioeconomic status (SES). Schools cannot change poverty or the living conditions of those children, however schools can change ways to reach and teach all children. This exemplar summarizes the High Performance All Students Success Schools Model (HiPass Model), which describes features of highly successful high-poverty elementary schools as documented by Dr. Jim... - 1/1/06 - National Institute for Urban School Improvement,, Equity Alliance at ASU

Anyone involved with schools — especially urban schools — knows firsthand how often discussions of bilingual education generate more heat than light. In such a politically charged context, it is often difficult to know where to look for up-to-date and fair summaries of what research is discovering about best practices. We think that the following review by Russell Gersten and Scott Baker brings some needed illumination to this controversial area. Our hope is that educators and... - 1/1/01 - Phil Ferguson, Rick Blumberg, Equity Alliance at ASU

"In this report, we identify public schools whose doors are effectively closed to poor children. These institutions—generally found in wealthy urban enclaves or well-heeled suburbs—educate many of the children of America’s elite while proudly waving the “public school” flag. But they hardly embody the “common school” ideal. In fact, by exclusively serving well-off children, they are arguably more private—certainly more exclusive—than many elite private schools, which, after... - 1/1/07 - Kennelly, Louise, Monrad, M.
