A primary activity of NYKids is to conduct research and identify promising practices in odds-beating schools.
Results of each study are available in multiple formats and include reports that summarize the results of each study; best practice frameworks that offer comparisons of higher- and typically-performing schools and sample documents from the odds-beating performers; and case studies of the individual higher-performing, odds-beating schools studied.
