High-school students who take college-level courses graduate from high school and succeed in college at higher rates than classmates who do not take such courses, according to a new report that profiles 22 programs, schools, and policies that foster such dual-enrollment approaches, including Advanced Placement classes, Tech Prep, and early-college high schools. The report, “The College Ladder: Linking Secondary and Postsecondary Education for Success for All Students,” was released by the American Youth Policy Forum, a nonprofit, nonpartisan professional-development group in Washington, and was financed by the Lumina Foundation for Education.
