A+ College Ready

A+ College Ready A+ College Ready partners with high schools and their feeder middle schools to raise academic expectations for all students.

We develop a diverse pipeline of students prepared for rigorous coursework and increase access to Advanced Placement (AP). The A+ Education Partnership was founded in 1991 as a non-profit organization to unite business, civic, parent, government and education leaders around one common goal: improving student achievement. In 2008, at the request of Governor Riley and the State Superintendent, A+ es

tablished a new operating division dedicated to improving student achievement in math, science and English. The division, entitled A+ College Ready, was the recipient of a $13.2 million grant from the National Math and Science Initiative (NMSI) to establish the Advanced Placement Training and Incentive Program (APTIP) a proven program that provides students and teachers with the tools, resources and support needed to achieve academic excellence.
