Document Number: 10311 A Better 9th Grade: Early Results from an Experimental Study of the Early College High School Model - This paper examines the success of North Carolina’s initiative to establish the largest number of Early College High Schools (ECHS) in the United States in order to increase the number of students graduating from high school prepared for college.
