Abstract
University-public school partnerships are being formed and defined in various ways. In this paper we describe a collaborative, grass-roots partnership undertaken by the University of Alaska Anchorage and the Anchorage School District. The grass-roots effort is distinguished by a perception of common ground, a minimal administrative and financial structure, and a high degree of commitment from the teachers (public school and university) involved. Children at-risk for school failure was the specific issue that provided the initial common ground, but the effects of the partnership far extended the at-risk issue by the end of the 3-year period
