"If we are to leave no child behind and offer each child a high-quality education, parents must be actively involved in their child's learning," Paige said. "We know that early childhood learning activities can help to close the achievement gap between economically disadvantaged children and their peers. To help all of our children read and learn well these centers can help share this and other valuable information with parents and teachers." States and territories that received new grants to establish centers include Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Guam, Illinois, Indiana, Louisiana, Mississippi, Nebraska, New Jersey, New Mexico, North Carolina, North Dakota, Oregon, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and Washington

Extractions: Chapters ... Members Area Parents for Public Schools of Jackson Founding site of Parents for Public Schools, Inc. Incorporated in 1989, the "mother of all chapters" continues to serve as a laboratory for many of the strategies that get tested and perfected across the national network. Following the early public school recruitment efforts, PPS of Jackson recognized the need and potential of parents to be involved in tackling persistent, systemic problems in the district. Several strategies have been underway during this time... In 1996 the chapter formed a district-level task force to accelerate school improvement. Within a year's time, the task force, made up of parent liaisons from middle and high schools in the district, developed a comprehensive plan to resolve the issue of overcrowding. After a thorough examination of school facilities usage and enrollment trends in the city, the chapter made a strategic report to the School Board. It included emergency measures (before the end of the year), intermediate measures (to be completed during the next school year) and long-term measures (for more permanent resolution of problems). The School Board adopted the chapter's recommendations wholesale. Beginning in 1999, PPS of Jackson became the fiscal agent and lead collaborator for a multi-partner initiative targeting a K-12 cluster of the the lowest performing schools in the district.
