This study inves­ti­gates how post-Kat­ri­na school reforms in New Orleans have improved col­lege out­comes by exam­in­ing the prac­tices of four high schools in fos­ter­ing a strong cul­ture for col­lege atten­dance and suc­cess. It high­lights the cru­cial roles of school lead­ers, coun­selors, and teach­ers in sup­port­ing first-gen­er­a­tion col­lege stu­dents through the col­lege-going process and explores how Louisiana’s col­lege readi­ness poli­cies have influ­enced stu­dents’ pur­suit of high­er education.
