For a while now, online education has been a good option for students who – for various reasons – can’t access on-the-ground education. And although there are still examples of rudimentary online courses out there (think compliance training), both the technology and the pedagogy powering online learning have gotten considerably better over the last decade. And now, fairly suddenly it seems, there are a growing number of cases where online education is actually outperforming its traditional classroom counterpart. Evidence of student success and, indeed preference, for the online classroom is mounting – and this will serve widespread benefits for all of us.

The 529 industry is collaborating to educate future students and their families about the benefits of investing for a higher education using a 529 plan. Twenty-seven states have collaborated to launch a national campaign raising awareness and educating savers with the aim of reducing future college debt.

Volunteers we need you.Our volunteer Parks and Spaces Chair Jorgelina Striedinger has been working very hard over the last 2 years to help with improvements for Gotham Way Park. Please note that the park belongs to the Piedmont Heights Civic Association, it is for the families of Piedmont Heights. The Park playground upgrades are almost complete, see the images attached. We would like to have a small grand opening ( planning, refreshments/volunteers to assist) but we need volunteers from our families. The date for the opening may be on or before March 17th, St Patrick’s Day. If you would like to assist please email us at parks@piedmontheights.org. We need volunteers for this event. This is not a long term commitment but just for this event. Thank you! Have a great weekend.Debra Gibson-Welch- Communications PHCA
