THE National Parent Education Center
HONEST and SUCCESSFUL
In My Shoes, Inc.
was founded as an answer to the lack of honesty. Some of
the problems plaguing schools across Georgia and across
the Nation are:
1) Low standards and
low expectations
2) Grade inflation
3) Inadequate curriculum
4) Willingness to mislead parents about their child's
abilities
5) Willingness to mislead students about their
abilities...
Over the years,
In My Shoes Inc.-The National Parent Education Center
has become recognized as the serious organization for
parents who are serious about getting the highest level
of quality education for their child.
Sincerely,
Phyllis Austin, Founder
In most of the Nation, the Standard is
Adequate Education,
i.e. Adequate Yearly Progress.
Therefore, when your child earns
A’s and B’s,
it’s on an Adequate Scale.
Our Standard is
QUALITY EDUCATION.

I
have been working with Ms. Phyllis Austin &
TNPEC for the last 4 years. Within that time,
there have been a number of issues that Ms.
Austin has helped me to deal with regarding the
DeKalb County School System, from meeting my

bullying, discrimination, etc.

When I first contacted the
National Parent Education Center, I was totally
at my wits end with Edwards Middle school in
Rockdale County. It was near the end of the
school year and I had been trying to get my son
evaluated for an IEP since the first day of
school.

I
would like to take this time out to thank The
National Parent Education Center for the
outstanding work you did on behalf of me and my
children. When I was in my most dire need of
help, I was depress and confuse on how to help
my children, you and your organization stepped
in with guidance on Federal and State laws and
regulations

The
DCSS Superintendent’s position to stand firm in
forcing Student X to move backwards cites a 1973
court case out of Texas, offers Student X a
position in another school on the Needs

Professional Practices
During the course of fighting for Student X's
Educational needs, we recognized that DCSS was
misleading and misrepresenting the
requests of parents to move students under
school choice. In DCSS, there are two
types of school choice: Federal NCLB and
State HB 251. DCSS was informing many
parents that their request falls under State HB
251 when the request should have been authorized
under the Federal guidelines of NCLB.
Many
more parents' NCLB rights may have been violated.
