New and Improved Parent Involvement Matching Grants

Schools will receive application materials this week for the new and improved Parent Involvement Matching Grants. Based on feedback from schools, the grant application process has been simplified, new grant "packages" of activities have been added as an option and the dollar value of the grants has increased. These grants are designed to help schools fund Blueprint strategies that increase parent-teacher communication and help parents support student learning.

For more information, contact Jeana Preston, Program Manager, Parent Involvement Department at (619) 725-5605 or by email to jpreston@mail.sandi.net.
