The Greece Central School District serves most of the Town of Greece. The Greece Central School District was created in July 1928, but schools existed in the area before the Town was established in 1822.  Vision: We are committed to building a culture of high standards, engagement and supportive relationships.  We provide equitable access to opportunities for all students to pursue their full potential and become healthy, productive citizens who are actively involved in their communities.

National Parent Leadership Institute (NPLI): The National Parent Leadership Institute is a nonpartisan, parent-centered, and anti-racist organization that partners with parents and communities to equip families with the civic skills, knowledge, and opportunities to be leading advocates for children at home, school, and in the community. We are pioneers in developing the field of parent leadership by embracing a cross-race, cross-class, parent-informed and pro-social learning approach to building parents as a constituency for community and recognizing children as the beneficiaries. Mission: We work with parents, public agencies, community organizations, local and state governments, foundations, and more to increase parent leadership, parent partnership, and parent voice at decision making tables, in order to create more caring communities for children. We support and celebrate PLTI alumni as they continue their leadership journey. We partner with Connecticut and Colorado in supporting their State-wide PLTI Initiatives We provide technical assistance to communities across the country as they support new cohorts of parent leaders, and as they work to build capacity within systems and staff to partner with parents. NYU Center for Policy Research: The Center for Policy, Research, and Evaluation (PRE) conducts applied research and evaluation studies focused on promoting positive educational outcomes for youth, and understanding the influence of both schools and communities on those outcomes. Its goal is to use research to inform educational policies and practices at federal, state, local, and programmatic levels. Mission: Our mission is to make research and evaluation for education that is action-oriented, liberating, accessible, and results in more equitable systems, policies, and practices. Recognizing that research is often used as a tool of domination, we believe in the reclamation of research tools to illuminate marginalized truths, stories, and experiences. We pursue our mission: in solidarity with youth, parents, educators, and communities that have been historically marginalized by oppression; collaboratively with researchers and practitioners from universities and community-based organizations; using a critical lens in our work and in our own personal development; with culturally responsive quantitative, qualitative, and mixed methods; through rigorous and thoughtful work that affirms humanity. PLTI Rochester: Too often, parents’ opinions go unheard. Many parents lack the tools of civic engagement, the know-how of working in systems, but not the motivation or will to change their children’s lives. PLTI provides parents with the necessary skills to lead change for the next generation. Mission: The mission of the Greater Rochester Parent Leadership Training Institute is to build bridges and advocacy skills to support parents becoming leading advocates for children. Parents’ opinions are often unheard. They lack the skills, but not the motivation or will to change their children’s lives.
