Parents are Key Partners

We all send our children to school with dreams of academic success. We hope for inspiring teachers who will motivate and challenge. Did you know that creating a partnership with these teachers can enhance your child’s experience even further?

Parent involvement in school has been shown to result in improved reading and math skills, as well as increased confidence and social skills. This is why your Head Start community has many ways for you to be involved.

Aside from your required home visits and parent/teacher conferences, you can increase this partnership in a variety of ways, such as: volunteering in the classroom, completing activity logs or learning links, attending enrichment activities, attending monthly parent meetings, or joining committees.

Please see your teacher or family service assistant to learn more!
