"Parents want the best for their children, and schools want the best for their students. Solid Foundation helps parents and schools work together to achieve what is best for all children."
Astrid Spraggins, Parent Education Specialist

Solid Foundation guides a school team through 10 efficient steps to:

assess strengths and areas for improvement,

develop a 2-year plan, and

implement the plan with abundant resources.

Solid Foundation is evidence-based and designed to:

strengthen family-school connections,

engage parents in children's learning, and

improve student academic and social learning

The process is directed by the principal and a school team; the PIRC will provide assistance throughout. We are currently looking for more schools interested in implementing Solid Foundation. Contact us at: montanapirc@wordinc.org.
