This partnership works with Lincoln Public Schools in Nebraska to help identify and remove barriers preventing secondary students from accessing honors courses and support students’ overall success in these courses. The partnership is conducting applied research to understand the factors from students’ pasts that help predict whether students take and succeed in honors courses in grade 9, which LPS considers key for ongoing honors course taking in high school.
