Parent Concerns and Involvement

By Allene G. Sieling

Parents as first teachers of their children should be welcomed, fully informed, and supported.

Target Success provides parent information nights and seminars, coordinates the activities of the various parent groups, supervises the activities of the home study centers, and has an award night to acknowledge and celebrate the help given by the individual parents and community members.

I believe that this activity is a step toward better communication between parents and the district, but I also believe that we need to work continuously to improve upon it in order to help parents as they attempt to guide their children through the process.
