High School 2025
KEY PRACTICES | CONTACT
High School 2025 is a framework to design a student-focused educational experience that will prepare students to accomplish their career goals and be successful in a global society.
The framework is designed around the four R’s: relevance, relationships, rigor, and results. Through research, these four R’s have been shown to produce positive results for students.
High School 2025 is based on the research and work of High Schools That Work: "Ten Key Practices"; The International Center for Leadership and Education: Three R's Framework; National Association of Secondary School Principals: Breaking Ranks II & High School Reform; and Partnership for 21st Century Skills.
