Parental Involvement

Parental Involvement: Parents are the first teachers a child has, and their role continues even after the child enters school. 

Parents’ Role: PARTICIPATE in school activities by visiting your child’s classroom and lending a helping hand.  ADMIRE and love your child.  Build on strengths and help improve weaknesses.  READ with your child – street signs, billboards, grocery lists, maps, books, magazines, cartoons, etc.  Set a goal of spending as much time reading together as watching television.  ENCOURAGE hobbies and interests such as sports, music, collections, pets, pen pals, or handicrafts.  Suggest friendships with children who share similar interests.  NOTE your child’s progress with verbal praise and a pat on the back.  Be positive.  Never compare progress with that of another child.  TALK about school, interests, friends, places you go together, and things you do as a family.  Encourage your child to ask questions.  Answer questions patiently.  SUPPORT your child.  Stress the need to learn to read for knowledge and enjoyment.

Parents are a key factor as to how well a child does in school.  Get involved in our school.  Join us and actively support your child’s education.

Vision Problems

Undetected vision problems affect up to 30% of elementary and high school students.  These problems can contribute to poor performance in school.  Many parents expect schools to detect children’s vision problems, but schools only provide a vision screening for students in grades K, 2, and 5.  Best:  Parents should arrange for yearly eye exams for children, especially if children show signs of vision problems, such as squinting, tilting the head, or reading too close to the page and/or headaches.
