Welcome to the Staying On the Path Toward College Family Case!

The Staying on the Path Toward College Interactive Case explores how schools and communities can work with Latino families to increase young people’s opportunities to attend college and succeed in life. The transition to middle school is a particularly important juncture along students’ academic pipeline to college, because the courses children take early in their middle school careers begin to influence the college and career paths they will be inclined to pursue. Unfortunately, we also know that a large number of ethnically diverse and low-income youth leave the academic pipeline prematurely. This case is designed to help educators understand the home, school, peer group, and com­munity factors that influence decisions Latino youth might make during the transition to middle school, and it explores ways that families, schools, and youth-serving community organizations can work together to ensure that all children have the opportunity to pursue higher education.
