HIGHLIGHTS
From 2007 Parent Survey
"It's great to know there's a place to go with questions whenever we want to improve something at our school. It's a wonderful network of people who know a lot about making any school better. I've enjoyed and learned something from every PPS meeting I've been to."
Effective Parent Engagement efforts
The Gates Foundation commissioned Chris Brown to do a scan of effective parent engagement efforts across the country. Thanks to the Gates Foundation, we are free to circulate this document (English, 369kb,pdf).
