SOUTH BEND - For a child to be successful, a panel of education experts said Monday, it takes more than a parent’s involvement in school.
The key, they say, is for moms and dads to be engaged with their kids on a daily basis.
“The research is clear,” said James Husband, Parent Academy coordinator for South Bend schools. “When parents are engaged with their children and their children’s school, they (kids) do better.”
