act this effect, the Association recommends that
high schools—
(A) restructure their layouts and schedules
so that students are no longer invisible and able
to ‘‘melt into their surroundings’’;
(B) limit their enrollments to units of not
more than 600 students, either by constructing
new buildings or by creating schools-within-a-
school; and
(C) change the relationship between teach-
ers and students by reducing the number of
class changes students are required to make
each day and by allowing teachers to spend
more time with smaller numbers of students.
(4) Research shows that larger schools tend to
stratify students into different tracks, which are
often based on children’s educational and social
backgrounds. The result is inequitable educational
outcomes, because at larger schools the gap between
the educational achievement of high-achieving and
low-achieving students is greater than at smaller
