Teachers make house calls in new school program rgj.com Reno Gazette-Journal:

"The project started in 1998 in Sacramento and has been used in school systems across the country.
Contrary to some students' concerns, the visits won't be focused on problems a child has, said Carrie Rose, executive director of the Parent/Teacher Home Visit Project.
Rose was among those who traveled from the Sacramento area last week to speak with teachers at Hug.
She said home visits are a way to show families that schools care."
