Contract Extension
A district charter school review team recommended a nonrenewal of the school's contract after the 2009-2010 year because of the school's failure to meet some academic targets spelled out in its agreement with the district, and its failure to comply with some minor paperwork issues. Meanwhile, MPS Superintendent William Andrekopoulos recommended that the board extend Alliance's contract for another year.
On March 9, 2010, the school received a two-year contract extension to improve its academics in a 5-0 vote. The board also agreed that an alternate means of assessment was needed to evaluate the value added the school brings to the district.

“Any intelligent woman who reads the marriage contract and then goes into it, deserves all the consequences.”
—Isadora Duncan (1878–1927)
“Slavery is founded in the selfishness of man’s nature—opposition to it, is [in?] his love of justice.... Repeal the Missouri compromise—repeal all compromises—repeal the declaration of independence—repeal all past history, you still can not repeal human nature. It still will be the abundance of man’s heart, that slavery extension is wrong; and out of the abundance of his heart, his mouth will continue to speak.”
—Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
