On July 21, 2011 Chris L. Hickey, Sr., the Executive Director of Each One – Teach One Alliance for Academic Access, Achievement and Success will be presenting a workshop at the 2011 College Board AP Annual Conference in San Francisco, as part of The Equity and Access Colloquium. The conference theme for 2011 is “Sharing Knowledge. Motivating Students.” Mr. Hickey’s presentation topic is: “The Role of Leadership in Creating a College Going Culture that students experience at Home and in their Community.”  In this workshop school administrators and teachers will explore and share perspectives relevant to the environment, attitude and practices that define a college-going culture. The focus will be on how school leadership can strategically influence the experience of their students at school, in a manner consistent with transforming their experience at home and community-utilizing methods that consistently support: a) students being interested and aware, as early as elementary school, of career and college options from a global perspective; b) the school’s expectation that all students can be prepared to attend college; and, c) a consistent message of high expectations for the student’s future.
