 Do the parents have a clear understanding of the need for parental involvement on how it relates to the campus’s vision?
Do they understand their role in the process and are they supportive?
4. Have the parents’opinions and ideas been validated by stakeholders at the campus level?

  1. Your research plan seems very interesting. I am interested in seeing the results of your research. I like that you have parental involvement and parental support included in your research. It would be interesting to read your findings and interventions to raise parental involvement and or support.

  2. You have addressed a problem that is occuring at campuses across the country. Title One schools are the first places people think of when they hear the words "lack of parental support". I can attest to seeing this in campuses that aren't Title One as well. It just seems natural that parents would want to be involved with their child's school life but I guess the world we live in is changing due to the hectic work lives of parents. Good luck and I plan to keep up with your blog.
