Highly Successful and Loving, Public Elementary Schools Populated Mainly by Low-SES Children of Color: Core Beliefs and Cultural Characteristics.

Scheurich, James Joseph

Urban Education, v33 n4 p451-91 Nov 1998

Reviews and describes five core beliefs and seven organizational cultural characteristics of urban schools that are highly successful in educating low-socioeconomic status (low-SES) children of color. These factors are operationalized in a model called High Performance All Student Success (HiPass), which was developed by urban principals rather than educational researchers. (SLD)
