Education Week: The White House convened its second annual summit on "next generation" high schools Monday not by announcing millions in new funding, as it did last year, but by highlighting the progress states and districts have made in transforming secondary schools.

Now in a supportive foster home in Virginia, Joshua said he's rediscovered school and is excited about it.
