School-Based FACE Action Coordinators

The FACE Action Team is a special committee that supports a school’s vision and action plan.

  • FACE Teams work together to:
    • Review school data, design, coordinate, and implement high-impact strategies that foster student academic success and well-being.
    • Build capacity among parents and educators, with an aim to narrow the achievement and opportunity gaps in APS.
