Parents are a child’s first and best teacher!
We know the impact parents have on children. That’s why we work hard getting parents involved in every level of their child’s life.
- We offer parent meetings and workshops tailored to parents’ interests and needs.
- We teach parents how to use their homes as a learning place.
- We expect parents to volunteer on many levels, including possibly serving on Policy Council.

We also enable parents to develop reading and literacy skills. We help parents get started on a GED and adult education. We offer parenting skills training and interactive parent and child activities.
