Parent Involvement

Studies have indicated that children whose parents and/or other significant adults share in their formal education tend to do better in school. Some benefits that have been identified that measure parental involvement in education include:

-Higher grades and test scores
-Long term academic achievement
-Positive attitudes and behavior
-More successful programs
-More effective schools

MSB staff know that all parents want their children to become successful, caring adults. Sometimes, however, they don't know where to start, when to find the time, or how to go about making positive connections with the school.  There are many opportunities to partner with MSB to support the student as well as finding resources that benefit student families. 

Parent organizations and committees, workshops, support groups and volunteer opportunities are just a few to name.  Even attending school events, such as plays, concerts, sporting events and Parents Visitation Day.  Even having lunch with your child can make a big difference in your involvement.
