Improving Climate and Achievement in a Troubled Urban High School Through the Talent Development Model

Abstract

A case study of Patterson High School, a large nonselective urban school in Baltimore, describes the design and implementation of the Talent Development Model with Career Academies. Specific school organization and instructional reforms are phased in over 2 years to address the underlying problems of student anonymity, apathy, and diversity at the school. Qualitative and quantitative evidence is provided on significant improvements in school climate, student attendance, promotion rates, and test stores.
