Good Middle School Journal Article On Parent Involvement

I recently discovered a very good article in the “Middle School Journal” that’s about three years old. It’s titled“What Research Says: Varieties of Parent Involvement In Schooling” and was written by Vincent A. Anfara, Jr. & Steven B. Mertens.

It gives a good overview of parent involvement research, but what makes this piece particularly unique is its discuss of historical patterns of family involvement in schools over the years.

It’s definitely worth reading.
