This list was originally part of a project developed during the summer of
1997. The project was created by Dean Moore at the Hamilton County Educational Resource
Center and funded by the AT&T Goldstar Program. Citizenship Proficiency Test Guides
for parents to use at the 4th, 6th, 9th, and 12th Grade Level were developed. They all had
extensive web site and public library resources. Feel free to contact me at sams_t@hcca.ohio.gov or Dean Moore at moore_d@hcca.ohio.gov for more information
concerning the project.
