Whole Child, Whole Community Conversation

ByDavid Breingan

Help shape the future of Pittsburgh Public Schools!

In December 2013, PPS released the plan “Whole Child, Whole Community,” which was created with feedback from the community. The Plan sets forth a path to help the District address two critical issues–financial stability and academic performance as well as reach our vision: ALL children will graduate from a two-or four-year college or receive a workforce certification.

The PPS leadership team will be sharing the plan, hearing your thoughts and ideas, answering questions, and finding ways for you to stay involved moving forward.

Where: East End Cooperative Ministry, Community House, 6140 Penn Circle North, Pittsburgh, PA 15206

When: Monday, March 17 – 6-8:30 PM
