Children are awake for about 6,000 hours a year, and only about 1,000 of those hours are spent in school. If we are to tackle the achievement gap and the inequities that contribute to it, we must pay attention not only to schools, but also to the places where children spend the rest of those 5,000 hours.

Testimonials

"Parent School Partnerships has a passion for connecting literacy and learning with our community. They provided a virtual workshop for Charlotte Mecklenburg Library’s annual El día de los niños/El día de los libros literacy celebration; and it was a fun, learning celebration! Ms. Morris, founder of Parent School Partnerships, brought authors, music and community icons together to let families members of all ages understand the importance and joy of reading. I was extremely impressed with the learning objectives and the unique way each objective was met. Ms. Morris made planning the event seamless from beginning to end. I hope we have the opportunity to work together again to bring this amazing opportunity to our community."
