A-GAME: Measure What Matters
In the pursuit of excellence and equity in charter school authorizing, the A-GAME framework has emerged as a transformative tool for driving accountability and advancing educational opportunities. This workshop will feature one or more early adopters of A-GAME services who will provide a comprehensive overview of the A-GAME process and demonstrate how their authorizing office utilizes this framework to promote global access, academic achievement, mission alignment, and equity within their charter schools. Through real-world examples, interactive discussions, and shared experiences, participants will gain insights into the practical implementation of A-GAME and its profound impact on charter school authorizing.
This talk was presented at:
2024 National ESEA Conference
