graduates enroll in college and whether they
complete a degree. Also looks at how
demographics and high school performance
relate to college outcomes.

supports available to students, and
challenges schools face in providing
those supports.

Student Voice Increases…
Dr. Russ Quaglia
Knowing less than 50% of students feel they have a voice in their
classroom or at their school, how can we shift our culture to increase
student voice and aspirations?
Dr. Russ Quaglia
At Reseda High School, we
• Have created an Aspirations cadre to
lead professional development
• Know students by name
• Connect with students when they’re absent
• Are shifting focus of Principal’s Advisory Cabinet for
Students to project development
• Bring in At-Risk 9th graders for summer academic
and socio-emotional enrichment
• Leverage Naviance for goal-setting to support
student aspirations
• Create a place for everyone (i.e. A Club for You!
For Newcomers)

• Only 23% of graduates of the Class of 2010 completed a college degree within 6 years.
• Of those graduates who started out at community college, only 8% finished a college degree within 6 years.
