Early Warning Indicators Identify At-Risk Students

Around the country, states and school districts are instituting early warning systems to identify students at risk of not graduating from high school or not being prepared for college-level work when they do. Although school districts begin collecting data on children in kindergarten, Education Week reports, often these early warning systems start in high school.

In North Carolina, the Charlotte-Mecklenberg district has an early warning system that begins in elementary school.
