BodyText1
Alaina Robinson, policy specialist II at the Institute for Public Administration (IPA), presented a poster presentation at the 21st Annual Policy and Practice Institute: Delaware's Conference on Public Education at Dover High School on June 21, 2023. The Policy and Practice Institute is Delaware’s premier networking and professional learning event for over 650 educators, school leaders, and policymakers across the state. Robinson’s poster presentation titled, The Redding Consortium for Educational Equity: A Model for Educational Equity in Delaware, featured the work and accomplishments of the Consortium and its work groups. Robinson empowered participants to take action by promoting educational equity in their school communities. Furthermore, she encouraged participant learning by sharing both practices and outcomes of the work of the Redding Consortium while also engaging scholars and practitioners in education in meaningful discussions about how to improve educational equity in their respective schools and districts across Delaware. The Redding Consortium was created to recommend policies and practices to the Governor and Delaware General Assembly that will achieve educational equity and improve educational outcomes for all Pre-K to grade twelve students in the City of Wilmington and northern New Castle County Delaware. The Redding Consortium is staffed by IPA and Delaware State University and supports programming to improve the lives of impacted communities by helping to fund full-day pre-K programs, wraparound services in schools, and scholarships to recruit educators and other educational support staff. IPA is a research and public service center in the Joseph R. Biden, Jr. School of Public Policy and Administration.
