AEA EVENTS
AEA Background Overview
The Access to Equity Gifted Enrichment Program, and the partnerships of the UCLA/LAUSD Collaborative and USC Architecture Lab (A-Lab) are intended to assist with the elimination of barriers associated with academic and opportunity gaps that are present within our society. Each program addresses systemic inequities for African American (AA) students and Standard English Learners (SEL) by providing underserved students with access to high-quality instructional practices and experiences intended to accelerate student learning. Programs further support school leaders, teachers, and parents with professional development designed to enhance knowledge, skills and dispositions needed to increase and accelerate students' individualized academic and social emotional needs.
