One state, three school districts, one organization, and eight schools are the recipients of the 2001 Partnership Awards from the National Network of Partnership Schools at Johns Hopkins University. The sites, located in Wisconsin, California, Connecticut, Illinois, Maryland, Ohio, and Utah, are recognized for excellence in developing and sustaining comprehensive programs of school, family, and community partnerships.
Partnership Award winners received an award banner or plaque and are publicized in the Network's newsletter (coming Fall 2001), Education Week, and here, on the Network's website. Many recipients announce their awards in their local media.
