Over the past decade, states have led the national movement to raise standards and graduation requirements, improve assessments, and strengthen accountability. Far too many young people leave our schools today without the skills and knowledge needed to compete in college, careers, and life. Achieve’s goal is to help every state close the expectations gap so that all students graduate ready for success.

The American Diploma Project Network is a coalition of 33 states dedicated to aligning standards, graduation requirements, assessments and accountability policies with the demands of college and careers.
