Description: In Against the Odds, scholars discuss the struggle and groundbreaking success of a Colorado school that split into seven smaller schools. Today, the Mapleton district is a testament to achievement and impactful reform within the small school model.
Synopsis: Against the Odds offers an in-depth look at the Mapleton, Colorado, school district s transformation of two traditional high schools into seven small schools, each enrolling fewer than four hundred students. This even-handed account chronicles both the heartening successes and frequent frustrations of a district-wide embrace of the small school model."
