One way to overcome some of the socioeconomic challenges that exist in many communities, which ultimately may impact student academic achievement, is to get the community and parents involved in supporting schools.  Read the article “Making Connections Between Home and School: Parents Become Active Participants” and identify the similarities and differences between the demographics of the school described and the demographics at your school or district. Discuss the strategies presented in the article that your school or district implements, or describe the strategies your school or district could benefit from implementing.  Be sure to provide specific details, examples, and references to the article to illustrate your points.
