Innovative Involvement Program in South Bend, IN
Sounds like these folks are making strong involvement progress bringing lessons from statewide training program back to their school
My Tip of the Week: Parent Involvement and the Classroom Connection
If you've been reading these tips for a while, you know how much we value parent involvement. The research makes it so clear that increasing parent involvement is perhaps the most important thing your group can achieve.
Another Tip: Speaking to you as a Parent
I figured I'd take this opportunity in early July to speak to you as a parent, as opposed to as a PTO or PTA leader. Funny, isn't it, how sometimes (often) our work being good PTO leaders makes it even harder to find the time to be good school parents?
Awesome Idea for Parent Group Website
If you spend anytime on our website, you know that we are all about parent groups building community. That's why we love this idea that a New Jersey PTA came up with; use their school's PTA website to help neighbors in a down economy. To accomplish this, they have set up an "items for exchange" section on their website -- see the "can anyone use a..." tab. Very cool.
