Dear All,
Quality education is elusive in many areas.
Many parents don't know what quality education is; many
parents don't know what to do when it comes to creating
quality education for their child.
When In My Shoes - THE NATIONAL PARENT EDUCATION CENTER educates
parents on education and supports and services the parent
and child, the child receives quality education. Why?
It's simple. The parent partners with an organization
that teaches the parent how to recognize, access, assess,
evaluate and if necessary, create quality education.
We help parents create quality education for their children.
Here are the statistics:
■
Too many students drop out. This spring 1.2 million
students will fail to graduate with their peers. More than
6,000 students drop out of school every day. (2004)
■
Failure starts early. By eighth grade, nearly 70% of
students are below proficient in reading, and most will
never catch up.
■
Too many graduates are unprepared for college, careers, and
life.
Not
ready for college: More than one in three college students
(34%) must take remedial math or English courses to catch up
on skills they should have learned in high school. In
community colleges, the remediation rate climbs to 43%.
Not ready for careers:
Nearly half of recent high school graduates who enter the
workforce (46%) say they are not prepared for the jobs they
hope to get in the future. Employers agree, estimating that
45% of recent high school graduates are not prepared with
skills to advance beyond entry level jobs.
Not ready for life: American students
have a hard time solving real-life problems that call for
practical decision making and troubleshooting. Among 29
developed countries, the U.S. had the fourth-highest
percentage of very weak problem-solvers and the
sixth-lowest percentage of strong
problem-solvers.
HOW GOOD ARE WE: In My Shoes - THE NATIONAL PARENT EDUCATION CENTER...

THIS IS THE REALITY
■
Solving the
problem will take strong leadership to raise standards, improve
teaching, and provide time and support for learning.
25
million students attend school in states that have set proficiency
standards for fourth grade reading below even the most basic level on
the National Assessment of Educational Progress.
More than 12 million students in grades 7-12 are taught academic courses
by teachers who have no degree in the subject they’re teaching.
High schools where teachers have time to provide students with high
levels of support manage to cut dropout rates in half.
■
Minority students are most disenfranchised by the lack of national
leadership on education.
Less than 60 percent of the nation’ Black and Latino students graduate
on time from high school.
Only 15 percent of Black eighth graders read at a proficient level and
less than 60 percent have been taught to read at even the most basic
level. By the time they near graduation, Black and Latino
teenagers have math and reading skills that are no higher than those of
White middle school students.
Black and Latino graduates are only about half as likely as White
students to leave high school adequately prepared for four-year
colleges.
More than 10 million Black and Latino students attend school in states
that have set proficiency standards for fourth grade reading so low they
fall below even the most basic level.
Teachers in high-minority schools are almost twice as likely to be
inexperienced as teachers in low minority schools.
