Alpine Achievement Systems was launched in 2001 in response to a need by school districts to manage high volumes of high-stakes achievement data efficiently. We are dedicated to helping teachers and administrators use data to improve the academic achievement of all students in addition to reducing the data management burden associated with accountability. Our Internet-based systems present your data in ways that are clear, convenient, and helpful. Reports are comprehensive and timely, and make explicit connections to instructionally relevant information, so teachers can use them to inform the teaching and learning process.
Alpine Achievement Systems is the vision of Alisabeth Shearn Ph.D., combining years of experience as a classroom teacher, school district administrator, and university researcher. Dr. Shearn taught in the Jefferson County Public Schools in Colorado and at The Ohio State University. She has been the Assessment Director for Academy School District Twenty and Colorado Springs School District 11 in Colorado Springs and is past-president of the Association of Colorado Education Evaluators (ACEE). She is a regular presenter at conferences in Colorado and throughout the nation, and has won 8 national awards for assessment results reports.

Dr. Shearn's brother, Charles Hohn, is the architect and developer of the Alpine software system and website. Mr. Hohn has been a software developer since the late-1980s and has designed and built software systems specifically for the internet since the mid-1990s. Prior to the inception of Alpine, Mr. Hohn was the Head of Product Development for Internet Communications (icom.com, a subsidiary of Interliant, Inc.) in Los Angeles, one of the largest web hosting companies in the world at that time. He is also the inventor of Sitemin, an online website development environment for software architects and developers. Sitemin has been used extensively in the development of the Alpine system.

These national awards recognize Alpine's unique contribution in the field of achievement data reporting. The systems developed by Alpine are powerful, efficient, and most importantly they are relevant to the needs of teachers and administrators.
