Overview
The mission of Envision Education’s four schools is to transform the lives of students — especially those who will be the first in their family to attend college — by preparing them for success in college and in life, through the integration of arts and technology into core subjects. Renewed support will enable Envision Learning Partners, the assessment arm of Envision Education, to expand and deepen its work via the Bay Area Performance Assessment Network. This project aims to increase educator and school leadership capacity for implementation of arts-integrated performance assessment, bringing it to a growing number of schools and counties in the region as a key educational strategy.

Grants to this Grantee
for a deeper learning community of practice focused on assessment
This proposed grant would foster a community of practice among the eight school operators in our proof points network. It aims to develop a collective sense of purpose, vision, and shared projects among the network members and to continuously improve instructional practices and student results within their schools. Activities will include network-wide forums, study tours designed to share exemplary practices and create collective accountability, and documentation of lessons learned to help promote deeper learning practices outside the proof points network.
for the videoconferencing project
This videoconference grant to Envision Schools will facilitate collaboration among the organizations in the deeper learning proof points network.
