promoting schoolwide reform through schoolwide programs or through additional services that increase the amount and quality of instructional time;
significantly upgrading the quality of instruction by providing staff in participating schools with substantial opportunities for professional development; and
affording parents meaningful opportunities to participate in the education of their children at home and at school.
