Exec. Director, Philadelphia Area Consortium for Education

Posted by on August 5, 2005

[emailed 8/2/2005]

As many of you know, I?ve been working these past few months to help launch a new non-profit, the Philadelphia Area Consortium for Education (PACE). The purpose of this venture is to bring together the educational partners currently working with the School District of Philadelphia to collaboratively raise funds to continue and expand the work we?re each already doing. Philadelphia schools, though they?ve made some progress in the past few years, remain in crisis, and we see PACE as the best way to harness the true potential of regional higher ed resources for maximum impact on the public schools and benefit to the participating member institutions.

This week we?re beginning the search for an Executive Director. The job description and application instructions are available on our (admittedly sparse) web site: <a href="http://www.PhillyACE.org">http://www.PhillyACE.org</a>. I encourage you to spread the word to anyone you know who might be interested in this job.

My thanks,
