Abstract:
The Eco-Interactional Developmental model of school success provides an understanding of the synergetic role that neighborhoods, schools, families, and peers can play in increasing the proportion of students who successfully complete high school. This article reviews the challenges involved in graduating high school students, presents the EID model, and then describes the School Success Profile, which is a strength-based assessment tool that uses the EID model as a theoretical foundation.
