In the media: Cole featured in Press-Gazette story on achievement gap

A Friday (April 27) Green Bay Press-Gazette story on closing the achievement gap in Wisconsin features our own Juliet Cole, associate director of the Institute for Learning Partnership. Cole was among area educators, administrators and Education majors who attended Thursday’s CREATE Wisconsin conference at the Radisson Hotel & Conference Center. CREATE — Culturally Responsive Education for All: Training and Enhancement — helps educators take critical steps toward closing the achievement gap between white and minority students, Cole said. “Wisconsin is about more than the Green Bay Packers and cheese,” she said. “We’re recognized as a good state to raise a family with strong schools. We do have an achievement gap, CREATE is working with educators to change that.” Full story.
