AVID/College Board National Conference

AVID/College Board National Conference
Taking a Stand: Leadership for College Readiness

San Antonio, TX
March 06-07, 2009

Featuring keynote speakers Michelle Rhee, Chancellor, District of Columbia Public Schools, and  Dr. Monte Moses, Superintendent of Colorado’s Cherry Creek School District, and former National Superintendent of the Year.

Co-sponsored by AVID Center and the College Board, National Conference offers superintendents, district leaders, principals, teacher-leaders, counselors and school board members an opportunity to engage in a dialogue on the crafting of a plan to close the achievement gap; a plan that is cost-effective, proven, and easy to replicate.

Participants will engage in dialogue, presentations, and sessions from practitioners on the front lines. Superintendents, site administrators, teachers, and students will share their stories and insights on:

  • Access to rigorous curriculum for all
  • Districtwide strategies for closing the achievement gap
  • Unique collaborative models
  • Systemic AVID and College Board strategies across the curriculum
  • How schools can benefit from an AVID/College Board collaboration
