These emails asked IPS leaders to urgently research nearby schools of all types that close the opportunity gaps too many of our schools face and then provide a plan by July to grow those models. We need to do everything we can to partner with schools that close the gap and to learn from the schools where all children are thriving.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/action.stand.org\/UEZrPi7\">IT&#8217;S NOT TOO LATE TO EMAIL IPS LEADERS<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The school my oldest son, Marell, now attends is just one example of a school not currently in the district that is closing the gap. I couldn\u2019t be happier or more pleased with his experience at Paramount. They have offered him opportunities he has never had. He even has a job there for the summer. He is thriving. They awarded him as the most improved student. His teachers tell me he is the hardest working SPED student they have. I am beyond proud of him and am affirmed in my choice to send him to Paramount.\u202f&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u202fIf you haven\u2019t already,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/action.stand.org\/UEZrPi7\">I hope you\u2019ll join me and ask IPS leaders to take action on this parent request with urgency, especially knowing the district could face school consolidations or closures.<\/a>&nbsp;In my opinion, if there\u2019s a building that can\u2019t be repaired, I hope to see IPS replace that school with a model nearby that can improve the education of children in that neighborhood.
