I really appreciate the trainers focusing on practical aspects of our implementation. I really enjoyed to information exchange and opportunity to network.

Parental Involvement Coordinator; Americus, GA


Thank you for your hospitality and your awesome demeanor and attitude. The organization and implementation appear to be teacher and parent friendly.

Special Education Teacher; Kayenta, AZ


I liked how the different schools (school districts) provided information on implementation. Having open discussions on the different challenges was probably the most helpful.

“I love this program. This will be our second year of implementation. I'm sure the numbers (data) will reflect the hard work being done by our teachers.

Counselor; Cuba, NM


“This was one of the most organized and enjoyable conferences that I have attended (and I have attended many)! I am excited about ‘I Care.’ I feel that this will help all parents from all education levels. I would have loved to have had this available to me when my children were in school.

Assistant Principal; Americus, GA


“I thoroughly enjoyed the ‘I Care’ Conference. Out of all the parental involvement workshops I have attended, this one has been the most effective/insightful to me. I am very much interested in having this implemented in the Baltimore City Schools (Title I). As a parent, being involved has always been important to me, and I always encourage other parents that they only need to give the school 15 minutes and those 15 minutes can work wonders.”

Title I; Baltimore, MD
