Parental Involvement

According to research children whose parents share in their education tend to do better in school. Some benefits of parental involvement in a child's education include:
Higher grades and test scores
Long term academic achievement
Positive attitudes and behavior
More successful programs
More effective schools

In this complex world, it takes more than a good school to educate children. And it takes more than a good home. It takes these two major educational institutions working together.
