Calendar Ideas

By increasing parental involvement in turn our school climate will be more welcoming.  At the beginning of this school year our PTA is changing to a PTO.  I have several ideas for increasing parental involvement throughout the year.  I am going to make a calendar of events to have available at our “Meet The Teacher Day”.  Some items to be included on the calendar are fundraisers, monthly meetings, school wide events, incentives, parenting classes, homework sessions, and coffee with the principal.  We are both very excited about embarking on this adventure.  Actually I am even excited about becoming an active member of the PTO to make this a success for everyone.

  1. I am also using increasing parental involvement as my action research project. Some of your ideas like " Meet the Teacher Night" and various fundraisers are already in place at my campus. Since I work at a high school, I am very interested in starting a parent tutoring program, especially for some of our harder math and science classes. I think it would be awesome if parents could help their kids with homework outside of school.
