This podcast episode from the Network's research team at MDRC covers interim findings from their causal study of New York City's P-TECH 9–14 schools. The episode provides a description of how P-TECH 9–14 schools are often structured and operate before discussing preliminary results from the MDRC study of the effects of these schools on student outcomes. These interim results show that in comparison to students at other schools, students in P-TECH 9–14 schools earn more credits and pass state-level proficiency exams earlier and at higher rates.
