With more than 500 independent research studies about parent involvement, the results speak for themselves.

When parents get involved in their children’s education,

  • Grades go up
  • Test scores go up,
  • They have fewer discipline problems
  • They’re less likely to use drugs and alcohol
  • Children become more likely to pass and to continue on with higher education

Volunteering doesn’t mean a huge time commitment.

  • An hour or two a semester makes a big difference.
  • There are jobs to fit every time schedule and interests.
  • There are some tasks that don’t involve coming to the school at all.
