Working Together for Excellence in Andover Public Schools

Welcome to ACE online. The Andover Coalition for Education (ACE) was formed in 2005 by a group of community leaders concerned about the growing gap between the programs that the Andover Public School budget could afford for its students, and the global economy's demands of those students when they stepped onto the world stage. True innovation and creative global thinking were being routinely sacrificed to meet tighter budgets.

Like the education funds in other towns with historically top tier schools, including Lexington, Newton, Brookline, Wellesley, Belmont and Needham, ACE's mission is to ensure, through private funding, that imaginative, rigorous enrichment programs remain a priority in Andover schools - regardless of the school budget. This kind of long-term commitment not only distinguishes good schools from exemplary ones - idling from acceleration - it is a requirement in a world that has never before demanded so much from its citizens.
