Dear reader,

Liz Willen When it comes to discussing how to improve U.S. education, I’m often surprised at whose voices are missing: students. And one of the things that sets The Hechinger Report apart as a news outlet is our focus on these important stakeholders. This week, you will hear from students about paying for higher education in editor Caroline Preston’s story on ([link removed]) income share agreements.

You can hear about restorative justice from a student ([link removed]) at a transfer high school in Manhattan, via our partnership with a student podcast, The Bell ([link removed]) . And you can also hear from student parents in my story ([link removed]) set at a community college, where a future nurse, surgeon and speech therapist told me about what it’s like to balance studies and young children – and how they get by with a little help from subsidized child care. Students, what’s on your mind? We’d love to hear from you.

Liz Willen, Editor

Main Idea


** To pay for college, more students are promising a piece of their future to investors ([link removed])
------------------------------------------------------------
With ISAs, unlike with loans, graduates pay nothing if they can find only low-wage work, and there are often limits on ISAs’ duration and on the total amount graduates must repay.
Reading List


** Subscribing to college and other visions of higher education’s future ([link removed])
------------------------------------------------------------
Academic labs test artificial intelligence, virtual reality and other innovations to boost learning, lower costs.



** Why aren’t more school counselors trained in helping students apply to college? ([link removed])
------------------------------------------------------------
Student mental health, not college and career planning, is the focus of school counselor education — and that’s hurting low-income students the most.



** How parents of young kids make it through college ([link removed])
------------------------------------------------------------
High quality on-site childcare helps these students beat the odds and graduate.



** Black college presidents matter; we should lead from the top ([link removed])
------------------------------------------------------------
Appointing a black college president can spark racial inclusion.



** Research on early college high schools indicates they may pay for themselves in the long run ([link removed])
------------------------------------------------------------
Study found higher cost but more college degrees for low-income students.
