Far from being solely imparters of information, teachers have long
been tasked with multiple and increasing responsibilities. Recent
decades have now seen a formal expansion of these responsibilities,
adding often-unfamiliar duties to teachers' already full plates.
Advisory in Urban High Schools explores the expanded roles of
teachers who serve as advisors to students, a role that often
demands teachers provide social-emotional support to their
advisees. Through an in-depth study of teachers in multiple small,
urban high schools with advisory programs, this book considers the
precedents for the advisor's role; the interpretations, enactments,
and responses teachers bring to the advisor's role; and the
experiences of and outcomes for students.
Kate Phillippo evaluates the practice of having teachers also serve
as advisors, tasked with providing social-emotional support to
students. Through an in-depth survey of teacher-advisors at three
different urban high schools, she examines the different ways in
which advisors interpret and carry out the role and the outcomes
for students.
