Description of the Book:

This article cites middle schools nationwide that are using various methods to partner with parents, ensuring that not only is entering middle school a smoother transition but that giving parents a better understanding of the changing curriculum is a top priority. Over 200 middle level schools are addressing No Child Left Behind requirements to involve parents in ways that advance student achievement and success as members of the National Network of Partnership Schools at Johns Hopkins University. The partnership helps members understand and implement a comprehensive model of school, family, and community partnerships. All schools can use the research-generated framework of six types of involvement to develop a comprehensive program of school, family, and community partnerships. The six types of involvement are: (1) Parenting; (2) Communicating; (3) Volunteering; (4) Learning at Home; (5) Decision Making; and (6) Collaborating with Community
