Parents: A Top Priority for Atlanta Schools
Summary
The importance of parental involvement in a child's education is undeniable. It’s well-established that students with engaged parents tend to excel more than those without such support. But is simply recognizing this enough?
The Importance of Parental Involvement
Today, many parents, whether in single or dual-parent households, juggle work commitments. This challenge is no different for parents of Atlanta Public Schools students. To truly support their children, parents must do more than just encourage homework completion.
While some students thrive without parental involvement, all children benefit from it. Even the highest achievers in Atlanta Schools gain from parents who engage with them academically. This involvement sends a powerful message of love and interest in their daily activities.
Atlanta Schools Take Action
In August 2006, the Atlanta Schools education board initiated a Parental Involvement Task Force. The goal? To devise strategies that enhance parental involvement and ultimately boost student success. This initiative highlights the commitment of Atlanta Schools to elevate parent participation, bringing the issue to the forefront at an administrative level.
Ways to Get Involved
Reading with a child or assisting with homework has substantial benefits, even for teens. Moreover, volunteering in classrooms, libraries, or at school events is invaluable. Being physically present in school shows children?"and their peers?"that their parents care about their educational environment.
The Parental Committee
Each Atlanta school, from elementary to high school, hosts a parental committee, a subset of the Task Force. It includes two parents and two faculty members, with the following objectives:
- Recommend strategies to the Atlanta Schools Superintendent for boosting parental, family, and community engagement.
- Contribute to the annual parent/community report submitted to the Board of Education.
Atlanta Schools clearly recognize the vital role of increased parental involvement in improving student achievement. The dedication to fostering this relationship underscores their commitment to educational excellence.
