Parent Involvement: A Key Ingredient in Student Success

Why is parent involvement important?  The earlier parents get involved in their children’s education and continue consistently throughout elementary, middle and high school, the more powerful the results.  

When parents are involved and take an active role in their children’s education at home and in the community, they perform better in school and have a better chance at furthering their education.
