SEDL Letter Volume 20, Number 1 Making the Most of Middle School
SEDL Letter - April 2008

This issue of SEDL Letter examines some of the issues middle school educators face, including the lack of national policy addressing these years. We learn from a former middle school principal how families can help their middle school students. We look at the research that shows how middle schoolers are falling behind in math. We debate whether we should revamp middle schools and go back to the K-8 system. Finally, we discuss how afterschool programs can attract and retain this hard-to-reach audience.
