Involvement in your child's education takes many forms. Several of which you are probably already doing:

•Attend parent-teacher conferences with specific questions you want to ask.

•Meet your child's friends and get to know their parents.

•View selected TV programs together and then discuss them.

•Respond to school surveys/questionnaires on the effectiveness of volunteer programs.

•Become part of a school-based managment team with teachers and the principal.

•Talk with employers about holding parent meetings or parenting workshops on-site.
