Whether a child is starting school for the first time or simply starting a new school year, it's important for parents to be involved in the child’s education. Here are some ways that parents can get involved and stay knowledgeable about what is going on in the child’s life.

Meet All the People Responsible for a Child’s Education

Parents should introduce themselves to all the teachers, crossing guards, coaches and other parents. Never miss an opportunity to get to know the people in a child's life. Parents will meet people at orientation, the bus stop, or when picking up the child after school. These are all people who will interact with the child on a daily basis, so parents should know them.
