For more information, visit [https://usprogram.gatesfoundation.org/](https://usprogram.gatesfoundation.org/).  \nWe are grateful to the many people who contributed to this study and report. We especially thank the NSI intermediaries, principals, and educators who participated in the study. This report would also not have been possible without the help of the state education agency and school district staff who provided the administrative data for the analysis. 1 We also thank many Gates Foundation staff who provided valuable information about the NSI work and feedback on the study’s design, including Vivian Mihalakis, Darryl Hill, Susan Fairchild, and Katherine Martin. The foundation’s project officer, Andy Sokatch, provided insightful guidance and thought partnership throughout the study. The study also benefited from the support of the evaluation partners, AIR and RAND, as well as Double Line and Abt Global.  \nA team of Mathematica staff helped obtain research approval from a large number of state and local education agencies for the study. They included Annie Buonaspina, Katherine Campbell, Megan Davis, Jessie Mazeika, Elizabeth Mugo, Veronica Sotelo Munoz, Catherine Pratt, Dana Robinson, and Ramya Tallapragada. A team of programmers from Mathematica, led by Emma Ernst and Alma Vigil, cleaned and analyzed the administrative and implementation data for the study. They included Julia Kindler, Hena Matthias, Brandan Pierce, Ren Schlosser, and Tara Wildszewski. Drew McDermott, Brianna Pollari, and Nichole Webster from Education Analytics cleaned and analyzed administrative data in California.  \nJohn Deke, Silvia Robles, Leah Shiferaw, and Breyon Williams made important contributions to the study design. Philip Gleason provided expert reviews of the report. Jill Constantine, Alex Resch, and Alison Wellington from Mathematica; Kathy Francis and Chaya Jones from Redstone Strategy Group; L’Heureux Lewis-McCoy from New York University; and Jonathan Isler from the California Department of Education provided helpful review and guidance. Jennifer Brown edited the report and Sharon Clark and Allison Pinckney prepared the report for publication. Jordan Maurand and Michele Carringer made valuable project management contributions.  \nCorrection Notice  \nThis report was updated in July 2026 to fix an issue with one year of the college enrollment data that the study team identified after publishing the report. The conclusions about impacts on college enrollment remained the same in the updated version of the report. There were minor changes to the interpretation of two findings presented in Section III about aspects of implementation related to impacts.  \nContents  \nAbstract ................................................................................................................................................................................................................. v  \nI.
