Our Approach

Coalition for Educational Partnerships (CEP) assists districts and schools in creating a culture of openness and high academic achievement. CEP services and tools are designed to help teacher, families, team leaders and administrators create new, efficient processes for reaching their goals. We use a scaffolded approach because we believe that when students, families, and educators embrace new learning with claim and confidence, they are open to new ways of thinking and doing. With heightened expectations and powerful new tools to expand students learning opportunities, academic achievement improves, test scores go up, and school performance improves.

We believe a system of clear expectations for student achievement promotes educational equity. This equity is ensured through universal access for all students which are the cornerstone to our educational philosophy. The result of our continuing collaborative professional development efforts with educators, families, community partners, and post-secondary institutes gives assurance to students actually achieving their true potential for academic success. When this success is attained, when there is no measurable gap between the academic performance levels of student subgroups - then, we will have achieved true educational equality.
