Join the Key Civil Rights Challenge of Our Generation
Two-thirds of Altadena's 4,000+ public school students come from Hispanic and African-American households. The academic achievement gap between these children - our nation's emerging demographic majority - and the middle-class is outrageous and getting worse every year. Our Altadena neighbors are now poised to become the first community in the nation to close its academic achievement gaps in all 6-8 schools through a new school district we want to staff with the great rare educators who by their experience can be trusted to close our community's enormous achievement gap. Take your Go Journey beyond mercy by joining our justice pursuit to tell our Altadena neighbors about the 100 best practices and to collect signatures for the district's feasibility study. http://www.altadenaschools.net Forman Christian College Update
