In a bold departure from traditional education reform, the three institution heads agree that the education of Maryland's citizens is a shared responsibility of the three institutions. The economic and civic future of Maryland depends on a substantial increase in the number of people who meet Maryland's K-12 student achievement standards and who successfully enter the workforce or complete a college education. A belief that bold educational leadership is required Meaningful improvement in student achievement at all educational levels requires bold leadership leadership that crosses institutional and system lines to build a vehicle that promotes and facilitates improvements from kindergarten through college graduation. A vision of the strength of collective strategies In pursuit of the goal of high student achievement, independent projects should harness the energies of the talented people throughout Maryland's school districts, colleges, universities, and businesses, along with those of parents and others in our communities. The initiative of the K-16 Partnership is supported by a Council consisting of corporate, civic, and public and private education leaders who advise, counsel, reinforce, communicate, and support an agenda to improve student achievement.
