Welcome to the 2009 Emerging Knowledge Forum
Draft Profiles
The Annenberg Institute has prepared draft profiles of each of the sites featured at the Emerging Knowledge Forum that provide contextual information, background on the key issue of focus, and preliminary findings. These profiles are intended as drafts only, for the purpose of fostering a greater depth of discussion. Participants are encouraged to use the Notes and Comments areas in each profile to register the questions, comments and insights raised by each profile and to share them at the Forum. They will be revised and expanded based on the discussions at the Forum and additional research.

About the Forum
The Annenberg Institute hosts a two-day, invitational forum each spring for some 125 participants - including educators, community leaders, school administrators, researchers, and foundation officers - who bring diverse perspectives but a shared commitment to improving urban education and a willingness to expand their own learning.
