Alexander has three insightful, media-infused presentations and two full day
workshops. At the core of each are data-proven methods to raise student
achievement.
This presentation focuses on how Alexander
used creative writing, his first book Sam Iver:
Imminent Threat, and video production to
eliminate the achievement gap for his school's
97% African-American, Title I population. While
the rest of the State's African-American students
scored at a 51% proficiency level on the MEAP
Reading and Writing exam, Alexander's students
scored at a 92% passing rate, which bested the
State average for ALL STUDENTS by 19
percentage points. Ultimately, Alexander shares
how you can eliminate the Achievement Gap.
Alexander's second presentation focuses on globalization of the world's economy and
the impact it will have on our schools. Alexander shares his efforts to answer these
challenges and break the status quo of student achievement as the Principal of a Blue
Collar, Title I school. This presentation challenges the participants to see our current
system of education in a different light and to recognize the changes that need to be
made immediately when the participants return to their own schools.

common assessments that led to a 53 point gain on the State Assessment, and his
second book, Ryan and Ruby Go To Kindergarten, that dynamically impacted
Kindergarten Readiness and early literacy (MLPP) test scores in his school's
community.
