摘要这项比较案例研究考察了两所表现较好的城市高中和两所表现较差的城市高中的关爱实践的普遍性，以及有助于或阻碍学生感受到关爱程度的背景因素。我们发现，表现较好的学校表现出了关爱的社区，在那里，人际关系和较高的学业期望在整个学校都很普遍。强有力的领导支持、作为学校核心价值观的关怀以及丰富的课程和课外结构促进了关怀学校社区中的关系；这些背景因素在表现较差的学校中不那么普遍，因为个别情况下存在关怀。讨论了对学校领导的影响。
ABSTRACT This comparative case study examines the prevalence of caring practices in two higher performing and two lower performing urban high schools and the contextual factors that helped or hindered the extent to which students felt cared for. We found that higher performing schools demonstrated caring communities, where interpersonal relationships and high academic expectations were prevalent throughout the school. Strong leadership support, caring as a core school value, and abundant curricular and extracurricular structures facilitated relationships in caring school communities; these contextual factors were less prevalent in lower performing schools with isolated instances of care. Implications for school leaders are discussed.
