In this episode, sponsored by EdUp Leadership (https://e0d82acd.click.kit-mail3.com/0vuz2qqq75t9h9rk7vmalhv89xwr2tnhx8q3m/g3hnh5hm94klp8sr/ZWR1cGxlYWRlcnNoaXAuY29t) the II happening July 16 & 17, & the 2026 AcOps Conference (https://acops.com/events/acopscon) July 29-31 by Coursedog
YOUR host is Dr. Jodi Blinco (https://www.linkedin.com/in/drjodiblinco/)
How does a high school with 100% of students going to college but less than 50% graduating transform persistence by asking students two simple questions: what is working & what isn't?
Why does creating mentorship hubs through social media where alumni grab coffee with incoming first years cost nothing but change everything about how students see themselves in the driver's seat?
What makes thinking about colleges as partners in a pipeline instead of competitors who are siloed from high schools the shift that moves persistence numbers from 50% toward 100%?
