Deepening our core research initiatives during the 2025–26 academic year, NashvillePeer advanced collaborative research within five long-term, cross-institutional working groups and three short-term rapid response studies. Working group topic areas include postsecondary readiness, student absenteeism, educator support, school climate, and youth success and wellbeing while rapid response studies focused on pressing district needs including evaluations of MNPS’ tiered intervention and teacher retention bonus programs, and how the state’s definition of economically disadvantaged affects who is counted among MNPS students.
