DID YOU KNOW?
If you are a parent group leader or volunteer, chances are you already know that your involvement in your child’s school is good for their education. It’s one of the main reasons you do it, right?
But here’s the thing: It’s actually really good for their education.
Researchers have been studying the effects that parent attitudes and actions have on their children’s academic success for many years, and they have reported consistently that children with parents involved in their education and schools earn better grades, score higher on tests, and much more. The reasons that parent involvement increases student success are many—in itself, simply letting a child know you care and are invested enough to be involved in their day-to-day school life sends a clear message about the value of school and education.
