RECEIVE EMAIL UPDATES: SEARCH PTO TODAY: Getting an Education in Parent Involvement By Emily Graham A few years ago Liz Gardner’s worst nightmare was speaking into a microphone at a PTO meeting. The mother of two overcame her fear of speaking to groups, and this summer she presented her plan to raise parental involvement in academics to the Kentucky commissioner of education. Kathy Staub in Manchester, N.H., has a similar story. By her own admission, she was once an ordinary, mild-mannered PTA president. Now she’s speaking out at school board meetings and motivating parents across the city to get involved in school. Both women filled traditional parental roles at their children’s schools for years, but wanted to do more. They learned how through parental involvement education programs. These range from monthly workshops to intense yearlong programs, all with an aim to engage parents in academics. As schools across the country work to implement reforms under the No Child Left Behind Act, even more organizations are forming to recruit parents in the effort. Leadership Training Liz Gardner has always been active in her children’s school, but in the past she usually helped with fundraisers and went to meetings. This year she’s analyzing the school’s standardized test scores, pinpointing weaknesses, and showing parents how to help their children improve.

Kentucky's Arts in Learning Partnership Kentucky Arts education required by state law (KERA) Essential skills in the arts adopted by state department of education Comprehensive Arts, Culture and Technology plan with five goals for school reform guiding partnership programs and funding Gerri Combs, Executive Director Kentucky Arts Council 31 Fountain Place Frankfort, KY 40601-1942 Phone:(502) 564-3757 Fax:(502) 564-2839 Email: gcombs@arts.smag.state.ky.us Kentucky's partnership efforts could be described as one of a dynamic, shared progression. It would be impossible to point to a single entity or decision maker in Kentucky's ongoing efforts to see the arts assume an essential role in education. Instead of discussing "partnership" as static and something that can be pointed to, a more accurate construct for Kentucky might be that of a definable group of "committed players." As needed each player brings to the fore resources to accomplish the goal of arts for all students. However, whether formal or informal, partnership and collaboration pays off. Kentucky's hard work over the past 15 years has yielded important progress in arts and education reform. Currently, the key organizations in Kentucky's fluid partnership effort include the Kentucky Arts Council and the Kentucky Education, Arts and Humanities Cabinet, Kentucky Alliance for Arts Education, Kentucky Collaborative for Teaching and Learning, Kentucky Department of Education, the Kentucky Citizens for the Arts, the Kentucky Center for the Arts and Kentucky Educational Television.
