Product Description How do school communities create environments that fully prepare both English learners and dual-language learners for colleges and careers? Profiling six high-performing high schools, the authors identify design elements and shared values that were key factors in yielding extraordinary results. These include a school-wide language development framework dynamic assessment practices and intensive social-emotional support. Review In sum, Preparing English Learners for College and Career offers hope that educators, school leaders, and policy makers can and will keep these lessons in mind as they propose the next wave of school reform and reorganization. Rather than advertising the latest remedy or the most recent intervention, Santos and colleagues provide an infrastructure upon which each community can overlay the resources and materials at hand to make the most effective program possible. Educators, leaders, and EL advocates in any community can come together over the lessons laid out in these pages, consider their unique context, and identify core areas on which to build to their strengths in order to create their own responsive infrastructure. --Teachers College Record
