The 6th Annual Alternative Accountability Policy Forum (AAPF) convened 285 educators, advocates and policymakers that work with at-promise students. Forum presenters and attendees from 21 states emphasized that despite obstacles, all students can succeed. Participants were presented with 22 concurrent sessions that addressed: effective alternative accountability policies; workforce, community and post-secondary partnerships; relevant teaching and learning strategies; and addressing student trauma. Our Keynote Session was provided by noted Civil Rights activist, education reform advocate and academic, Dr. Howard Fuller. Our closing session was presented by Congressional education staff experts Mandy Schaumburg and Jacque Chevalier.
AAPF participants are leaders in advocating that the education of at-promise students’ needs to be the focus of attention at the national, state, and local levels. As a group, they called for a rethinking of policies, practices, and partnerships for building instructional and alternative accountability approaches that support excellence and equity in schools as well as account for the difficult circumstances of at promise students. The Summary of Proceedings is a summary of the key points as presented in each session, along with policy and practice recommendations from the 2017 Alternative Accountability Policy Forum.
