requirements; achievement, home/school connection and student engagement, the
program will start in February. The program empowers parents how to motivate
their student to continue a 4 year university. It is a 4 week program offered both
in Spanish and English. Maria Corrales, an ERHS teacher and coordinator on site
for PIQE, explained how a program such as PIQE would have benefited her
parents and helped encourage her siblings and her to continue on to a university.

university. Many foreign language/culture parents do not understand what it takes
for a high school student to complete the A-G requirements and the Cal State
requirements. This program will help parents to empower their child to take the
