Side by Side is a faith-based nonprofit organization that works to strengthen Prince George’s County elementary schools in Laurel, Md. We are convinced that we and others in the community can and should build up local public schools into a source of pride and the best possible launching pads for children’s bright futures! Our core program is designed to get children off to a 'Great Start.' Side by Side provides its Great Start program at six elementary schools. This is a series of free workshop evenings in English and Spanish for pre-kindergarten to second-grade parents. The parents find out what their children are expected to learn in the current year, and are given home activities to help in that learning. Topics include behavior, reading and math. The evenings include a meal for the entire family and children’s activities.
