This bulletin describes the growing Adopt-a-School Movement, a grass-roots initiative by the public schools' external constituencies to assist financially and materially either an individual school or an entire school system to design educationally enriching programs. Examples are given of banks, major corporations, local businesses, foundations, colleges, the military, and civic groups who work with individual schools and school systems to provide children with job-related skills so that one day they may enter the labor force and contribute to the economy.
