Teachers College Press Breaking Barriers: How P-Tech Schools Create a Pathway from High School to College to Career

null Review "In my opinion, this book should be on the reading list of every school board, superintendent, principal and education service provider."--On Board, newspaper of the New York State School Boards Association"This book would be of interest to anyone interested in understanding the barriers to college entry and workforce readiness."--Teachers College Record"Ultimately, Breaking Barriers is about improving education so that a child's future success is no longer primarily determined by their zip code (i.e., whether they live in a rich or poor area). Breaking Barriers is an invaluable study of a tested model with potential for improving countless lives, highly recommended especially for library Educational Studies shelves."--Midwest Book Review About the Author Stanley S.
