iNACOL - May 2014 Leadership Webinar - Closing the "Advanced Achievement Gap"
iNACOL | May 14, 2014 | Webinar: Closing the "Advanced Achievement Gap"
Nationally, many students of color and students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds perform among the top 25 percent of all students in reading and math at the beginning of high school. Many of them, however, leave high school with lower college success predictors than their high-achieving white and more advantaged peers. Schools can take action to better serve these students. To prepare students for college and career, high schools must balance their attention carefully, ensuring that low-achievers catch up and high-achievers don't lose ground. In this webinar, Christina Theokas and Marni Bromberg of the Education Trust will share research and insight into how to better serve this group.
Personalized blended and online courses can provide powerful delivery systems to increase access and equity for underserved students. Educators and school leaders need to ensure students have access to high-quality new learning opportunities. The Education Trust's research has major implications for how to increase educational opportunities and provide equity. This webinar will include a real world example of how to use blended and online learning to close the achievement gap for high-achieving poor and minority students.

Lasc 2010 clean water presentation
Over 1 billion people worldwide, about 1 in 8, do not have access to clean drinking water. This forces many, especially women and children, to walk over 3 miles to collect water. The long trips prevent people from working or attending school. Several developing countries in Africa and Asia are affected by a lack of clean water. Nonprofit organizations work to provide safe water sources and improve lives and opportunities.
BPS Carbon Footprint
The document summarizes an energy benchmarking study of Burlington School buildings conducted using the EPA's Energy Star Portfolio Manager tool. The study found that school buildings ranged in their Energy Star ratings from 9.6 to 66. It also reported the annual carbon footprint of each school in metric tons of greenhouse gas emissions. The study identified several low-cost and no-cost strategies to improve energy efficiency, such as adjusting lighting and HVAC usage. Student opinions suggested opportunities to reduce use of smartboards and better manage heating and cooling schedules. The document concludes that Energy Star can help determine which green changes will provide the best return on investment.
