General Family Engagement Information

"Parents are children's first and most influential teachers.  By reading to children or having them read to us, by making sure homework is done, by monitoring television use, by knowing how children spend their time, parents can have a powerfully positive effect on their children's learning." 
~ U.S. Secretary of Education


Over thirty years of research has proven that parent engagement is one of the largest determining factors related to school success. When parents are involved and engaged in their children's education the results are positive:  children achieve higher grades, they attend school regularly, they demonstrate more positive attitudes and behavior, they graduate at higher rates, and they have a greater enrollment in higher education.
