Sam Stringfield and John H. Hollifield, Jr. were the founding editors and Amanda Datnow and Faustine Jones-Wilson the founding associate editors. Many board members have served throughout JESPAR \u2019s existence and many with shorter tenures have made substantial contributions. John Nunnery, Martha Mac Iver, Wendy Winters, Coby Meyers, and Emily Rodgers have also served as associate editors, and Cary Berkeley Kaye, Sam Kim, and Kirsten Sundell as assistant or managing editors. After Hollifield\u2019s death in 1999, Stringfield remained as editor until his death in 2016. In 2017, Jerome D\u2019Agostino of The Ohio State University became editor of JESPAR.<\/p>\n

JESPAR has focused on original research into student outcomes regarding at-risk students in elementary and secondary school, although from time to time it has explored relevant aspects of preschool or college education and has published relevant essays and book reviews. Founding editor Sam Stringfield was particularly proud of the journal\u2019s special issues, including, to name just a few, collections addressing pathways to postsecondary education and Reading Recovery.<\/p>\n

The editorial teams and boards have shared the belief that effective educational practices and programs exist that make a difference in the lives of students who, for a variety of reasons\u2014racial, economic, family, linguistic, or other\u2014are placed at risk of academic failure. Since its founding, JESPAR has reported on the progress made toward providing all children with a high-quality education and social support.<\/p>\nLearn more about JESPAR<\/span><\/a>\n
