Parent involvement in education month celebrated in October | International Falls Daily Journal


Parent involvement in education month celebrated in October International Falls Daily Journal:

"Research shows that students learn more, have higher grades, and have better school attendance when parents are involved.

Try some of the following activities with your child to encourage success:

• Look for upcoming school activities or events that you could be involved in
• Check out books at the library that relate to what your child is learning in school.
• Have a family game night. Have your child keep score.
• Have a family reading night. One person can read aloud, or everyone can read silently.
• Talk with your children about their day. What was the best part?"
