Organizing for Educational Excellence Institute Instructional Excellence. All schools. All children
The purpose of the institute is to equip parents and community leaders with the skills and knowledge to insure that all children in our communities receive high quality instruction. The institute brings parent and community leaders together with educators and policy makers to share knowledge about improving academic instruction in schools serving low-income children.
The Education Institute is a joint project of PICO National Network and ACORN with financial support from the Carnegie Corporation, Charles Stewart Mott Foundation, Coleman Foundation, Edward W. Hazen Foundation, Ford Foundation, Hyams Foundation, William & Flora Hewlett Foundation and William Penn Foundation.
