Performance
The Alliance asked whether we could create schools using a rigorous education model which would curb the dropout rate and create a college-going culture. Could we help kids in underserved areas complete the A-G course requirements and succeed in college?
The answer is a resounding yes.
As we continue to open more schools, we see our students achieving and proving us right every day. Each Alliance school promotes a culture of high expectations for every student and our students are achieving more and more.
