A team of community and City School District of Albany
partners is at work this winter on an effort to evaluate and redesign
the district’s alternative-education programs.
The Alternative Education Think Tank addresses a critical
need identified in the district’s strategic plan, “A Vision for
Tomorrow.”
Under the leadership of Raymond Schimmer, chief executive
officer of Parsons Child and Family Center in Albany, the think tank is
looking at how the district’s existing alternative-education programs
are performing, and researching new and innovative ideas.
The committee includes parents, school administrators,
teachers, researchers and representatives from the community.
“This is an important educational and team-building
opportunity to marshal resources from throughout our community to
address the needs of all of our youth,” said Assistant Superintendent of
Secondary Education Tresa Diggs, Ed.D.
