Proposal summary

Purpose & objective

In the next several years, we have a tremendous opportunity to redesign the educational experience for millions of students in our country. We know that students are more than a standardized test score and our systems must be student-centered and equity-focused. Our goal is to prepare students for college, career and life beyond high school. Through AASA’s Redefining Ready! and Learning 2025 initiatives, districts can use these frameworks to transform the educational experience in their communities. Help shape what “ready” looks like across the country.
