HOW CAN PARENTS HELP?

AT HOME:

1. Be certain that your child, if well, attends school each day.
2. Talk to your child about school. Encourage your child’s success and effort.
3. Follow the teachers’ suggestions for helping your child at home.
4. Read with your child or encourage your child to read every night. Ten minutes can make an important difference.
5. Be certain that your child gets enough sleep each night.
6. Take your child to the library.
7. Read and discuss the parent-school compact your child brings home. Sign and return it to school.
8. Provide a “homework” space for your child

AT SCHOOL:

1. Visit your child’s school and meet your child’s teachers.
2. Discuss your child’s progress with the teachers.
3. Volunteer to help in your child’s school.
4. Participate in Title I family activities and workshops to learn about academics.
5. Complete parent surveys which evaluate the program and suggest improvements.
6. Attend Title I parent meetings to assist the staff in designing, implementing, and evaluating the program.
