About this grant

This grant will provide partial support to Editorial Projects in Education to provide an ongoing and independent resource to the field on issues of high school graduation through its "Diplomas Count" publication. In 2012, the grantee published the seventh edition of "Diplomas Count" that provided an in-depth exploration of high school graduation and the larger reform landscape encompassing high school improvement efforts, as well as the movement to a college readiness, access, and completion mandate. Recommended support will enable the grantee to publish the eighth edition of its "Diplomas Count" report and focus new research on the linked issues of high school graduation and college readiness.
