AAE challenged and supported the schools in a quest to increase the percentage of students, especially non-traditional students, who enroll and succeed in college-level courses during high school. Additional information about AAE can be found at www.asainstitute.org/aae www.asainstitute.org/aae The first three tables include data for 3,384 graduates who earned the Indiana Core 40 Diploma (traditional college-prep curriculum).
