The mission of Alliance for Education is to help every child in Seattle Public Schools achieve academic success. It pursue this mission by securing seed capital for innovations in learning and by fostering city-wide support for excellence in schools.
As an independent nonprofit organization, the Alliance acts as a constructive partner to Seattle Public Schools. It champions change and helps drive effective strategies that will increase student achievement.
By engaging the greater community in a thoughtful dialogue, the Alliance strives to create opportunities to inspire, inform, listen to, and learn from the collective wisdom of Seattle residents. The Alliance Blog is intended to be yet another channel to engage our community and create a dynamic discussion about issues surrounding education.

I could not disagree more. The Alliance does almost nothing productive, nor is it truly “independent”. It is nothing more than a puppet of an organization for Seattle Public Schools. I am disappointed to see the Coalition thinks they’ve done real work.
Or maybe I should ask, what has the Alliance done for Rainier Beach schools?
