Authors' interpretation, not a tested result in this brief: they draw on previous KIPP high school research and interviews with KIPP college support staff to explain the combined-exposure findings as possibly reflecting college preparatory culture and supports.
"Previous research on KIPP high schools and interviews with KIPP college support staff suggest that these findings may be driven by the college preparatory culture at network high schools, as well as college-related supports delivered to KIPP high school students and alumni."
