In 2023, only 48% of California’s high school graduates met the criteria for admission into the state’s two public university systems, with traditionally underserved students seeing even higher levels of ineligibility, according to a recent EdSource report. EOS Superintendent-in-Residence Ryan Smith, an education leader in California for twenty years, has witnessed this issue first-hand – but sees a clear path to a brighter future for the state’s high school students. In his new article, Smith breaks down his solution to this persistent problem into a few key focus areas: Raising expectations and changing mindsets, eliminating barriers and increasing support for students, and engaging and empowering parents. Smith highlights EOS as one of the organizations helping schools cultivate inclusive and encouraging classroom environments, which allows students to reach new academic heights and equips them with the tools to thrive at the next level.

Here's the latest New Lines newsletter from Stanford Digital Education (which I help to produce). It covers how Stanford is expanding to serve students at high schools in low-income communities and how such service is part of the university's founding document.

Here is the list for all of you looking to attend college next year or for those of your parents that has a kiddo or two on the launchpad 🚀🎓🚀🙋♀️🙋♂️🙏 I guess there are at least three questions that come immediately to mind … 1) is an elite college the gateway to success it used to be? 2) With so many alternative educational opportunities available eg. OnlineEd, Skilled Trades, etc..are these schools worth the cost? And 3) Where am I going to find the money? 💰💰💰 Let’s face it while most of us would love our kids to attend one of these schools, the reality is, the cost of higher education in the US is #wayoutta hand… Makes you stop and think about the alternatives of just diving into one of these institutions Straight Outta high school. I know a lot of families that have chosen #communitycollege and/or #skilled trades as an alternative. In California, if you do well in your first two years at a CC, can generally get into any number of great schools 🤙 Anyway, food for thought 🤔🫶🧐 https://lnkd.in/eF9u3NSs

(These opinions are my own) I recently had the opportunity to participate in two impactful education conferences: Yes.Every.Kid’s Stronger Together Denver Cohort and ExcelinEd’s ESA Administrators Network in Minneapolis. These experiences caused me to reflect on school accountability within our education system, particularly in relation to market-based approaches. I find myself aligned with ExcelinEd’s CEO, @Patricia Levesque who borrowed a line from her friend 50CAN’s president Derrell Bradford by stating, “you regulate a monopoly different than a market.” Levesque points out that accountability assessments are crucial for traditional public schools due to their monopoly status, whereas market-driven education relies on parental choice as a robust accountability measure. (Regulating Public, Private Schools: Parental Choice Is The Key (excelined.org) I particularly value ExcelinEd’s A-F accountability framework for its clarity in assessing school performance, which is essential for both schools and families. (ExcelinEd.PolicyToolkit.AFSchoolGrading.ModelPolicy.2019.pdf)    As I continue my residency at ExcelinEd, I look forward to exploring these nuances further and continuing my development as an education policy leader.
