PIQE Helps Schools Build Student Success
• When schools promote involvement they
increase involvement and student success
• High performing schools
– Invest in the development of involvement
– Offer parents more opportunities to build skills
– Actively organize and mobilize their community to
increase benefits for students
• These results are statistically significant
• PIQE provides school with capacity and
know-how
