Studies show that children whose parents are actively involved in their education perform much better. The home atmosphere is a crucial factor in creating and maintaining the child's attitudes toward school. If parents are involved, it shows children that they value education. Parental values and what they do to assist in the learning process are more important to success than the wealth of the family. Children need to know that they can learn from other people in addition to teachers.
Parents have a shared goal with teachers to support student learning.
Building a strong partnership between parents and teachers supports that goal. Modelling volunteerism teaches children the importance of contributing to their community. Parent participation can assist in developing a sense of community within the school. Ensure your child gets enough sleep and proper nutrition to be ready to learn. Ensure your child has the appropriate place and time to do homework and that assignments are completed.
