2008-2009 Regional Workshops

Supporting Families Through:

 Parent Resource Centers & Family-School Functions

 

This year, PPP regional workshops will focus on supporting schools in building and promoting use of resource centers, as well as new ideas for interactive, meaningful family-school functions.  Participants will explore ways to tie family functions in with their school’s Parent Involvement Policy, Comprehensive School Improvement Plan, and MSIP Accountability Plan.  Parent involvement is often a neglected component of increasing student performance and overall school improvement.  How can school-family nights and other activities build parental involvement that enhances education? 

We will look at how schools can support learning at home through lending libraries and comprehensive parent resource centers.  How might these centers be operated?  What might be included in these centers?  How can use of the centers be maximized?  How can these centers really impact parent involvement in education? 

Participants will be invited to share their success stories with the group during these workshops.  Please join us for this great opportunity for gaining new ideas from both PPP staff and area school staff members.
