About The Achievement Network
The Achievement Network (ANet) is a nonprofit organization, founded in 2005, motivated by the vision that one day all students will have the opportunity to master the skills and concepts needed to be successful in college and beyond. ANet is committed to helping all students achieve academic excellence by providing urban, low-income schools with effective – more... data-driven strategies to identify and close gaps in student learning, and embedding these strategies into schools' everyday routines to measurably close the achievement gap. ANet enables schools to use data to increase student achievement by combining high-quality standards-aligned assessments; educator coaching in how to analyze assessment results, identify gaps in student learning, and create action plans to address these gaps; and peer Networks of schools that collaborate to improve their use of data. This comprehensive package has produced measurable student achievement gains in our Network schools. In the coming 2010-11 school year, we plan to work with nearly 170 schools and continue to expand our Networks in six geographic regions- Massachusetts; Washington, D.C.; New Orleans, LA; Newark, NJ; Chicago, IL; and National Heritage Academies. By 2013, we aim to serve over 300 schools across these Networks in order to affect the educational outcomes of over 60,000 students every year.
ANet was recently named as one of only 30 winners nationally in the United States Department of Education's Investing in Innovation (i3) Development category competitive grant process. The i3 fund was established under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 to provide competitive grants to local education authorities and nonprofits partnered with them with a record of improving student achievement. Funding from the i3 grant will support an independent randomized control study and growth of our networks for the next four years. – less – More from ZoomInfo »
