MassGrad evaluation brief: Alternative pathways
May 2013
From the brief's introdction:
The MassGrad Evaluation Briefs share findings from the evaluation of programs funded by the MassGrad initiative, whose purpose is “to substantially increase the number of students who earn a high school diploma.” The Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (ESE) believes that the lessons learned from MassGrad can help all schools that are trying to increase graduation rates, so ESE asked the evaluator — the UMass Donahue Institute — to frame the briefs not just for MassGrad participants, but also for a broader audience.
