Advocacy
Alliance for Quality Education For too long, Albany has broken its promise to provide a quality education to all of New York’s students! Join us for the kick-off of the No More Excuses campaign & building a bigger, stronger movement to ensure that all of New York’s students receive a high quality education. http://www.aqeny.org/ Diane Ravitch's Blog http://dianeravitch.net/ Parent Partnership Network To improve achievement for all students, the mission of the Parent Partnership Network is to assist parents, community, and the Syracuse City School District to work in collaboration in all aspects of the learning process. This will be accomplished by providing information and referrals, assistance with effective communication, 1:1 support, opportunities for decision-making, governance and advocacy, and establishing networks among those who value the uniqueness and diversity of our families. http://www.syracusecityschools.com/districtpage.cfm?pageid=596 Peaceful Schools http://www.peacefulschools.com/ Stop Bullying.gov Bullying can affect everyone—those who are bullied, those who bully, and those who witness bullying. Bullying is linked to many negative outcomes including impacts on mental health, substance use, and suicide. It is important to talk to kids to determine whether bullying—or something else—is a concern. http://www.stopbullying.gov/at-risk/effects/index.html Support Innovative Teaching in Syracuse City Schools Figuring out where to plug in and make a difference in today's education system can halt even the heartiest of souls in their tracks. This page was created to give each of us who care about Syracuse's kids, and love the teachers who work so hard, a place to share stories of people doing right. It's also a place to share ways that regular caring people can be supportive of continued improvement. Members and site administrators alike will share easy ways to give to classroom innovation, opportunities to volunteer, and neat ideas that need care and feeding to be successful. If you're ready engage in an easy and positive way to improve the SCSD, this is your place.
