Do you have data to show how you have "closed the gap"? If so, then you would be the perfect presenter for the Closing the Achievement Gap Conference. This conference will showcase success stories of teachers, schools, or districts that have successfully closed the achievement gap within Oregon. We want to promote these successes and share them with others in the hopes that attendees will walk away from this event with solid concrete tools that they can implement in their school system immediately. The five strands are as follows: 1. Instruction 2. Parent and Community Involvement 3. Curriculum 4. Leadership and Accountability 5. Training and Staff Development Closing the Achievement Gap Conference February 28, 2004 - Portland State University Welcome to the Closing the Achievement Gap Conference home page. Thank you for your interest in ensuring success for all of Oregon's students. Current research combined with effective teaching strategies and data gained through student assessment is allowing us to recognize both successful strategies and areas of improvement in our students' education. Now is the time to realize these opportunities and put them into action where they are needed most-in Oregon's classrooms. This conference will highlight leaders whose classrooms, schools and districts are meeting the challenge of closing the achievement gap. These people are putting great ideas into action that are yielding real results for Oregon's students. I personally invite all people interested in ensuring the success of all students to come together to share and learn from each other. Working together we will continue our high level of service to all of Oregon's students. Thank you! Susan Castillo State Superintendent of Public Instruction |
