    ALBUQUERQUE PUBLIC SCHOOLS SStatustatus Quo?Quo? ¿¿Qué?Qué? NoNo Way!Way! AAnn AAPSPS PrimerPrimer 22013-2014013-2014 There’s Nothing Status Quo About APS A message from Superintendent Winston Brooks Status quo. It’s a popular catch phrase among critics of public education. It implies that those who have dedicated their lives to helping the next generation are satisfi ed with mediocrity, are in it for the paycheck, are dispassionate and uncaring. Walk into an Albuquerque Public Schools classroom and you know that’s hardly the case. We’re dedicated to our profession. We appreciate the enormity of the task. We’re up for the challenge. And it certainly is a challenge. Teaching children who face so many diffi culties -- whether they be mental, physical, language barriers, poverty or others -- means personalizing education. It means a willingness to try new things, admit failure, regroup, start again. It means anything but status quo. To those who say, “Status Quo,” we say “What?” or in Spanish, “¿Quéé? No Way!” We invite you to learn more about APS in the pages of this 2013-2014 Primer. We’ll fi ll you in on some of our successes over the past few years and the plans we have for the future as we continue to provide the foundation for happy and successful lives for all of our students. To those who say, “Status Quo,” we say “What? ¿Quéé? No Way!” APS Goals Goal One: Academic Achievement APS will implement an academic plan aimed at im- proving achievement for all students with an intensi- fi ed focus on closing the achievement gap.
