Dallas ISD To Launch Lapiz Y Papel (Pencil And Paper), An Educational Television Segment

26 Feb 2010

The segment will provide information and resources to parents

DALLAS–In a partnership with Univision-channel 23, Dallas ISD will launch Lapiz Y Papel (Pencil and Paper), a weekly educational segment to air during the 5 p.m. newscast on Saturdays, starting on February 27.

The segment will provide Dallas ISD and parents from other school districts throughout North Texas, information and resources that will enable them to get involved in their children's education and also will help them to build positive relationships with their children.

The first topics to be featured include: TAKS preparation, a checklist for seniors, prom safety, parent resources, and more.

"Dallas ISD has improved more than any other urban district in Texas and more than all but one urban district in the country in narrowing the achievement gap."
