It helps support the operations of more than 1,300 locally-owned and -operated public television and radio stations nationwide, and is the largest single source of funding for research, technology, and program development for public radio, television and related online services.<\/p>\n<p><strong>About American Graduate <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.americangraduate.org\/\">American Graduate: Let&#8217;s Make it Happen<\/a> was launched in 2011 with 25 public media stations in high need communities to spotlight the high school dropout crisis and focus on middle and high school student interventions.\u00a0 Today, more than 80 public radio and television stations in over 30 states have partnered with over 1000 community organizations and schools, as well as Alma and Colin Powell&#8217;s America&#8217;s Promise Alliance, Everyone Graduates Center at Johns Hopkins University School of Education, Alliance for Excellent Education, Bill &amp; Melinda Gates Foundation and Newman\u2019s Own Foundation to help the nation achieve a 90% graduation by 2020.<\/p>\n<p>With primetime and children\u2019s programming that educates, informs, and inspires public radio and television stations \u2014 locally owned and operated \u2014 are important resources in helping to address critical issues facing today\u2019s communities. According to a report from the Everyone Graduates Center at Johns Hopkins University School of Education, American Graduate stations have told the story about the dropout crisis in a way that empowered citizens to get involved, and helped community organizations break down silos to work more effectively together.<\/p>\n<p>In early 2014, CPB and PBS KIDS committed an additional $20 million for the \u201cAmerican Graduate PBS KIDS Fund\u201d to also help communities connect the importance of early learning as part of a student\u2019s long term success. In addition to station grants for local engagement, the Fund will support the creation of children\u2019s content and tools to help parents, particularly those from low income communities,better prepare their young children for long term success. Fourteen American Graduate station grantees have also been awarded CPB early education grants to reach children ages 2-8 with programming and services developed through the Ready to Learn Initiative, a project funded by the U.S. Department of Education.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"># # #<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NPT to is proud
