National
PTA President Laura Bay requests your participation in a Department of
Education online survey
(it’s only 5 questions!) on the most pressing educational issues (as you see them)
and how the US Department of Education’s Comprehensive Centers can provide
assistance to address those issues.
The
Comprehensive Centers
program is authorized by Title II of the Educational Technical Assistance
Act of 2002 (ETAA), Education Sciences Reform Act (ESRA) of 2002. The
Department of Education funds these Centers to provide technical assistance to
State education agencies (SEAs) that builds SEA capacity to: support local
educational agencies (LEAs or districts) and schools, especially low-performing
districts and schools; improve educational outcomes for all students; close
achievement gaps; and improve the quality of instruction.
Please
complete the online survey at
your earliest convenience. The survey closes on Thursday, August 18.
