About this title

Synopsis

For many students, sophomore year can be a forgotten year, a time sandwiched between high school’s more momentous milestones. As a result, sophomore year lacks a clear identity, but is also well positioned to be a time of intentional development for high school students. The purpose of this report is to help build an organizing purpose for sophomore year by developing a research-based organizing set of indicators for sophomore educators.Using Freshman OnTrack and more nuanced definitions of freshman success, sophomore educators can better target intervention and support from the beginning of sophomore year; and using similar sophomore success indicators, they can monitor and support students during sophomore year.
