Hope for urban education: A study of nine high-performing, high-poverty, urban elementary schools.

Link: http://www.ed.gov/pubs/urbanhope/index.html

This report tells the stories of nine urban elementary schools that served children of color in poor communities and achieved impressive academic results. All of the schools used federal Title I dollars to create Title I school wide programs. In these schools, many important change efforts were enhanced through Title I education resources. Though Title I supported the change efforts, however, it was not the catalyst for change. The true catalyst was the strong desire of educators to ensure academic success for all students.
