Andre Green ’97 Leading Efforts to End Misuse and Flaws in Standardized Testing

He will take over as executive director upon the upcoming retirement of the organization’s longtime leader Dr. Monty Neill.

Andre earned his BA in Political Science and Psychology at Bard College at Simon’s Rock, and was the first in his family to do so. He values the quality of education he received at Simon’s Rock, where college entrance exam scores are optional.

In his new position at FairTest, Andre will continue to lead the organization in advancing quality education and equal opportunity by promoting fair, open, valid, and educationally beneficial evaluations of students.
