One key challenge of Type 1-Parenting is to provide information from workshops and other school activities to families who cannot attend. For example, the Action Team for School, Family, and Community Partnerships at Cross Country Elementary School in Baltimore City makes sure that summaries of all school events and activities are available in the school's Parent Room.
Parents can stop by to pick up the summary of a workshop they missed.
Summaries also appear in the school's monthly newsletter. Newsletter of the National Network of Partnership Schools, Johns Hopkins University, Meeting the Challenge Column, p. 1.
