Nov. 19: Quad County Community Forum

THE QUAD COUNTY URBAN LEAGUE'S PROJECT READY PROGRAM invites you to a Community Forum:

THE ACHIEVEMENT GAP:

BRINGING OUR STUDENTS UP TO SPEED?


WHEN: Saturday, November 19th, 2011

WHERE: Quad County Urban League

1685 N. Farnsworth Avenue, Aurora, IL 60505

TIME: 9:30 - 11:30 am*

COST: FREE

*Refreshments will be served from 9:00 - 9:30 am

The purpose of the forum is to assist our community in resolving Academic Achievement as a hot-button issue of mutual concern in a respectful and non-confrontational manner. During the forum participants will:

  • Weigh in on three approaches to tackling the gap in Academic Achievement
  • Realize the advantages, costs, consequences and trade-offs of each approach
  • Develop a common understanding of what is at issue
  • Recognize complementary individual and collective actions that can be taken.

This community event is in conjunction with the Midwest Center For Civic Engagement.
