People are Talking about PLTI!

Quoted from the October 4, 2007 Alexandria Times in which Mike Salmon reports on the School Board Retreat:
Closing the achievement gap was the first item of discussion, and the need for more parental involvement was cited as a big contributor in this area. The board was looking to the Parent Leadership Training Institute for ways to get parents involved."We have to explore what they're doing and replicate that," said Deputy Superintendent Cathy David.

From one of the participants in the 2008 class of PLTI:
Saturday was too much to describe in words! I am so grateful I was accepted to PLTI. Thank you for everything. The seminar was fantastic and I look forward to Friday - all Fridays! Everyone did a superb job - the facilitators, the volunteers and everyone in the group. People making a difference ! Keep up the good work.

I am (a) different person, more confident about myself.

PLTI has been one of the best, most wonderful experiences in my 36 years. I actually came to PLTI to find answers and seek for help. Each PLTI class was very helpful. I've learned to be more outgoing, more understanding, listening more to my needs and my family's needs. I am a better wife, better mother and I know that I am a better friend.
- Claudia Spencer -

It should be mandatory training for all parents! By week twenty, the tears of accomplishment were coupled with tears of sadness that the class had come to a close so quickly! I've developed a lifelong relationship with people committed to being involved.
