| Mission Statement The mission of this site is to inform you about what the Achievement Gap is, why we should be concerned, what causes the Gap, what will happen if it continues to exist, and what we can do to close the gap. Much of this information is geared towards educators, as I myself am a teacher. I welcome input from parents, educators and community members alike. My vision is that through knowledge, collaboration and action, we can all work together to close the gap. – Epryl King |
The No Child Left Behind Act has brought to light a problem known as the "Achievement Gap." It refers to the gap in achievement test scores between white and disaggregated groups. This problem has been around for a while, but now it has a name. |
Only a collaborative effort on the part of all stake holders will bring about positive change for everyone. |
Learn more. Make change. |
Whether you are a parent, law maker, community member, educator, or just curious, learn more about the Achievement Gap here. All input is welcomed as collaboration is the key to unified change. |
