Student-Led Research Transforms SLP Schools | |
|
What happens when high school students are given the power to choose what matters most to them? In SLP, the answer is real change.
Since 2020, students have been at the heart of critical decision-making by being apart of Youth Development Analysts (YDA) who selected and studied the data that impacts their school experience. From investigating racial disparities in advanced courses to exploring the effects of discipline systems, SLP's Youth Data Analysts continue to drive conversations that shape policy across the district.
Learn how their insights are making waves and transforming the future of education in St. Louis Park Public Schools.
