    This document summarizes a case study of three high-achieving urban fringe high schools. It identifies the research methodology used, which was a nationally accredited report on learner-centered practices. The findings indicate that the schools employed a wide range of institutional and organizational activities to promote high achievement, including flexible scheduling, groupings, and standard evaluations. The conclusions recommend that more research is needed to assess how schools are meeting the demands of No Child Left Behind, and to address the needs of students who may not succeed in a typical school system.
