MLE Network
College Ready On Track is an improvement community of DPS high schools dedicated to developing, iterating, and spreading practices that advance career and college success for our Black, Latinx, and MLL students.
For the 2024-2025 school year, we have assembled an MLE network in partnership with the district’s Multilingual Education Department to focus on improving outcomes for Long-term Multilingual Learners.
This network is made up of design teams from 10 DPS high schools.
Our Theory of Improvement
Our MLE network is focused on understanding our system and its outcomes through root cause analysis, data inquiry, and stakeholder feedback. Together with the Multilingual Education Department, teachers developed a Theory of Improvement that targets key opportunities to help our Long-term MLL students get ready for college, careers, and life.
This graphic represents our current understanding of the levers we believe will lead to improvements and ultimately impact our aim. Teachers will test change ideas in their classrooms to better understand and revise our theory to maximize student impact.
