Communities in Schools (CIS)
Extensive research has shown that students achieve more in school when their parents are involved in their education.
The following are some suggestions for parents who wish to get involved or become more involved, with their children's education. It is important to remember that doing even one thing on the list can make a difference in your child's academic progress.
· Read with your children and talk with them about the books and stories you read
· Help your children work on homework assignments
· Attend and actively support school activities
· Volunteer in classrooms, on field trips, or for special events
· Continue to be involved as your child is in middle and high school
· Attend parent-teacher meetings
· Talk with your child about school on a daily basis
· Be an advocate for your child to make sure that the child's needs are being met
· If a problem arises, address it quickly by requesting a meeting with the teacher
· Advise the teacher of any issues at home that may affect the child's school performance
· Encourage your children on successes and support them on poor performances
· Participate in PTA or other parent organizations, school advisory councils, or committees
