Main Features of Best Practices High School An Innovative Small Public High School for Chicago
- It�s small, around 400 students, grades 9-12, a representative mix of Chicago kids. Small means all are known by the teachers, and the teachers can easily work together as a whole faculty and in grade-level teams. Best Practice kids don�t fall through the cracks.
- Both teachers and students have a strong voice in leadership of the school.
- Classrooms feature small-group cooperative learning and active student participation, rather than lots of teacher lectures.
