Book excerpt: At-risk students are engaged in dangerous behaviors that lead them to become involved in the juvenile justice system and cause the feeling of low self-worth. This eventually causes at-risk youths to drop out of school and engage in detrimental behaviors that meddle in their academic success. The alternative education program provides these at-risk youth with the opportunity to develop positively their academics and behavior to complete a regular high school program. This mixed method study with quantitative and qualitative research enhanced the understanding of the perceptions of the effectiveness of alternative programs from an educator's viewpoint. Conveniently selected educators who worked at an alternative education site, had referred students to an alternative program, had worked with a student who was at an alternative site, or had a student who had been at a program completed a survey examining their perceptions of the effectiveness of alternative programs. From the selection, 10 educators were asked to partake in the qualitative section of the research to strengthen the validity of the research. The means were estimated to analyze the educators' perceptions of the effectiveness of alternative programs in southern state. The results revealed alternative education programs are needed and are effective in developing the needs of at-risk youths, which was consistent with the research shared in the literature review. Appendices include: (1) Survey Instrument; (2) Interview Guide; and (2) Sample Interview Responses.

Book excerpt: This study aimed to identify teachers' perceptions about alternative education programs and whether they are appropriate to meet the needs of at-risk students in Grades 3-5. The teachers' perception provides insight into the needs of at-risk students in the age group. Moreover, the demand for elementary education following the COVID-19 pandemic has increased the need for more personalized education for at-risk students at the elementary level. The necessity to address the social-emotional needs of students has become more prevalent as those needs affect the ability of teachers to provide students with the necessary academic support. Data were gathered utilizing an original digital survey tool created to meet the specific needs of this study. The survey was administered in five public elementary schools in Warren County, New Jersey via Microsoft Forms and was completed by 66 teachers assigned to Grades 3-5. The study was from a descriptive quantitative approach with a theoretical perspective. Data were collected electronically, coded, and analyzed using SPSS software to examine the potential impact of the demographic factors of the participants in relation to the various research questions. Statistical calculations included a reliability analysis, independent t-test, and item analysis. Results from this research study can be used by school districts interested in future planning and implementation of alternative education programs for students in Grades 3-5 to meet the needs of their at-risk students.

This book was released on 2008 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This qualitative study was designed to capture the perspectives of former alternative school students and former administrators regarding the effectiveness of the various components of their respective programs. Thirteen former students and six administrators completed surveys and follow-up interviews to rate the effectiveness of components recommended to be included in schools for disruptive youth by the Pennsylvania Department of Education. Data were analyzed to identify the components students and administrators perceived to be effective and to compare the points of view of the two participant groups. The component that received the highest ratings from both the student and administrator participants was: providing a small and supportive school environment. There was a discrepancy of student opinion regarding the effectiveness of curriculum and instruction. Interviews with administrators led to findings regarding obstacles that the administrators identified as preventing the development of more effective programs. These included: (1) Rigid graduation requirements of sending school districts that prevent the development of curricula that would be more relevant to the students, (2) Limited budgets that prevent the purchase of needed resources, especially curriculum and technology, (3) Convoluted bureaucracies that hinder effectiveness of the curriculum and instruction in the alternative schools and (4) Inconsistency in the philosophy and the reality of the program mission as they relate to transitioning students from alternative education programs back to public schools.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to evaluate two alternative programs in a North Carolina and South Carolina (SC) public school district to determine if they are effective in delivering constructive interventions that modify student behavior once students have left the programs and have returned to their regular learning environments. This mixed-method evaluation consisted of an experimental-comparison design approach that included interviews with program participants, completing focus groups, and comparison of the number of out-of-school suspensions that participants received after completing the alternative school programs in both school districts. -- The researcher and trained interviewers administered a survey to 25 certified and classified staff members in the SC district, including the school administration. A stratified random proportionate sample was used to produce functionally equivalent groups from the SC school district database for the number of alternative school reassignments due to long-term out-of-school suspensions of African-American ninth-grade students who received major disciplinary infractions. -- The three research questions that guided the study and their findings were: What practices are contributing to student success in the alternative program? The questions answered in the survey along with the focus group sessions suggested that there were positive procedures at the school that contributed to the student's success who attended. To what extent is the alternative program following its design as planned? The requirements are listed in Appendix A, the Alternative School Monitoring Report. The SC district continues to operate in accordance with the State Department of Education via a mandatory evaluation of state requirements and procedures. What is the effect of the alternative program on the recidivism rate? The data in Appendix B shows the numbers and how they have decreased by each grade each year. In an end-of-year alternative school report, the administration has reported a 4-6% recidivism rate. -- Based on these findings, the companion investigators concluded that the NC and SC alternative education programs were effective in decreasing recidivism for African-American males and females in the ninth grade and increasing student success when they returned to their home school. Findings also suggested a strong need for greater collaboration with the home schools and transference of interventions and practices. These elements were thought to be necessary by the alternative education staff in sustaining student success once they returned to their regular school settings. The investigators offered a professional development model outcome for the consideration of executive staff and Board of Education members to improve the overall success of not only African-American students but students of all ethnic subgroups within both southeastern school districts.

This book was released on 2007 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this research was to study the perceptions of the effectiveness of the Alternative Program in Maury County as measured by school climate. All students assigned to the Alternative Program in Maury County from July 2005 through December 2006 were asked to participate in the study. One hundred twenty eight students in grades 6--12 completed the National Study of School Evaluation for Students. One hundred one staff members (teachers and administrators) from the secondary schools, the Alternative Program and the Central Office completed the National Study of School Evaluation for Teachers. There were not perceived differences in the effectiveness of the program, with no statistical significance on 7 of 8 null hypotheses (p > .05), yet information was gathered that will be used to improve communication within the school system about the alternative program. Conclusions drawn from the study were that staff throughout the school system has little information about the alternative program, its purpose and strategies. Staff development programs will be developed to educate school system employees on the behavior program, instructional strategies and purpose of the program.

This book was released on 2007 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Author's abstract: This study examined the current assessment criteria utilized to evaluate the effectiveness of various alternative education programs within the state of Georgia. The population surveyed included alternative program principals for the year 2005-2006, from a list provided by the Georgia Department of Education. A survey instrument was constructed based on a synthesis of the existing literature on alternative education programs and was e-mailed to 207 principals within the state. The survey consisted of 20 multiple-choice items and three open-ended questions. Only 25 surveys were returned, which represented a 12.08% response rate. In addition, four principals from within a large metro Regional Educational Service Agency (RESA) district were interviewed, allowing the researcher to gain in-depth knowledge regarding the evaluative criteria utilized at various alternative programs. This study utilized the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) for the statistical analysis of data. Descriptive statistics were calculated and presented for the analysis of quantitative data. Content analysis was used to formulate emerging themes from qualitative data. 2 Study results indicated from the small population of respondents that most alternative schools were evaluated. The researcher also discovered that overwhelmingly most alternative programs are evaluated by reviewing student academic progress and/or gathering staff and/or student feedback. Follow-up studies are advised to garner higher response rates to determine if the results are similar.
