This is a group-based program provided in local schools to help with academic success. Parents learn their responsibility to provide a supportive home/school environment; e.g. setting regular bedtimes, morning routines, and packing backpacks the night before, making sure their children are up to date medically with current immunizations, and will learn as well as understand the need to send their children to school happy, calm, motivated to learn, and well behaved.
These workshops have resulted in increased parental involvement and increased productivity in the students. The school based parenting groups improve attendance and attitude towards learning and facilitates student integration into the school system. The home/school connection is emphasized.
