The Home-School Connection

Course details

Consistent parent involvement in education dramatically increases the likelihood that quality learning will occur. Parents play such a crucial role in their children's academic, physical, social, and moral development that we, as teachers, make a huge mistake if we view them as anything other than indispensable collaborators. It is not enough to keep parents pleased, appeased, or out of our hair. If we are committed to bringing the best out of our students, we need to build and maintain long-term relationships of loyalty, trust, and respect with their parents. Investing the time and effort to work closely with parents throughout the year maximizes our chances of helping students reach their incredible potential.

This course consists of nine video presentations. It will take approximately 1-2 hours to complete this Home and School Connection course.
