PASS is designed to establish a systemic collaboration between parents,
educators and community constituents that will provide students of color the
best chances for reaching their fullest potential.
Phase I: PEG consultants work with school staff, family and community
members to develop knowledge, skills and capacity to empower themselves to
effectively engage the district in collaborative efforts that are aimed at
strengthening partnerships to develop the whole child.
Phase II:PASS teams review progress from previous year and begin todevelop leadership capacities that will enable members to develop skill sets to
facilitate adult learning. Begin to develop strategies and action plans based off
of equity vision.
Phase III: PASS teams focus on moving the process deeper into the established
community. More complex strategies and action plans developed.
