Speeches For More Information: NEA Communications 202 822-7200 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE November 30, 1998 National Education Association Helps Improve Urban Education with Grants to Local Communities WASHINGTON, D.C. Grassroots initiatives that promote a spirit of cooperation among local educators, students, and urban communities are being recognized by the National Education Association (NEA) in the 1998-1999 NEA Urban Grants Program. This year, grants will be awarded to new teacher mentor programs, parental partnerships with educators, efforts to improve student test scores, and child rearing programs for new parents. School reform programs in 25 urban areas will each receive $4,000 from the NEA. "The only credible hope for millions of urban children is a reformed and revitalized public education system," says NEA President Bob Chase. "I applaud our local affiliates for tackling the challenges and embracing the task of improving schools in their communities." The awards are part of a larger NEA effort to improve the quality of education in America's public schools. NEA has invested more than $70 million over the past decade in public school improvement projects that empower teachers to address specific or systemic problems. Over 150 urban grants have been awarded since the program's inception in 1985.
