California Governor Signs At-Promise Bill!

Changing from At-Risk to At-Promise

​California has become the first state to recognize the importance of changing laws to recognize that all students are “At-promise” of success. Governor Gavin Newsom signed AB 413 (Jones-Sawyer) on October 12, 2019. The bill eliminates the deficit laden “At-risk” term in the California Education and Penal Codes.

Join us to celebrate this victory! The 8th Annual RAPSA Alternative Accountability Policy Forum will be held in San Diego, November 13-15. Participants of this exciting event will collaborate to create a national initiative to ensure that all states recognize the promise of students facing economic, cultural, and emotional challenges.

There are only 3 weeks left to register for this opportunity to participate in the most important equity paradigm shift in decades.
