When COVID-19 hit, Holyoke School District was nine |
|
months into an ambitious three-year strategy, the |
|
Homegrown Talent Initiative (HTI), designed to help rural |
|
communities across Colorado better prepare youth for |
|
success after high school by offering new career |
|
exploration and training opportunities. In the midst of |
|
school closings, remote learning, and community hardship, |
|
Holyoke found time to finalize its plan. This brief |
|
explores how Holyoke and other HTI districts increased |
|
youth access to internship and dual enrollment |
|
opportunities in the 2020-21 school year, while the |
|
pandemic disrupted opportunities like these for students |
|
nationwide. We found: (1) Community creation of a new |
|
definition of student success deepened districts' |
|
commitment to redesigning the high school experience, |
|
which propelled them to move forward with ambitious |
|
implementation plans; (2) Support from the technical |
|
assistance providers helped rural districts cultivate the |
|
capacity they needed to maintain progress; and (3) Early |
|
efforts to transform district policy and monitor quality |
|
moved communities in the direction of sustained, systemic |
|
change. [Additional funding for this research was |
|
provided by the Gill Foundation and Adolph Coors |
|
Foundation.] |
