Welcome to Parent Power Works, a project dedicated to helping parents make informed education decisions for their children. Confused about the quality of your child's school? Unsure what educational services are available to you? Don't know where to go for information?
We're here to help.
With Parent Power Works, the focus shifts to empowering parents - initially those in the District of Columbia and Maryland - by providing tools, training, and resources parents need to make good education decisions for their children. Parent Power Works lays the groundwork for parents, the school system, and local organizations to join together in working for a better standard of education.
We are dedicated to helping parents become more savvy consumers of education services - so you can BE THE POWER BEHIND YOUR CHILD'S EDUCATION.
Parent Power Works is a federally funded project of StandardsWork, Inc. a national nonprofit education consultancy based in Washington, DC. For 12 years, StandardsWork has worked hand-in-hand with school districts, state agencies and civic groups to improve student performance through the development and implementation of grade-by-grade standards, results-based evaluation systems, and other quality tools.
