Articles and videos on YES Prep

Edutopia did a wonderful series of stories on YES Prep North Central in Houston (YES is an extraordinarily successful network of seven high-performing grades 6-12 charter schools in Houston; there’s a very close relationship with KIPP that dates back to when YES’s founder, Chris Barbic, was a TFAer in Houston with Mike Feinberg and David Levin).  Here’s a great 6-min video, http://yesprep.org/TheAnswer/full/a_school_commits_to_academic_rigor, and here’s a link to the various articles: http://yesprep.org/TheAnswer/full/edutopia_features_yes_prep.
