MY CHECKLIST AS A PARENT FOR MY CHILD’S SCHOOL SUCCESS
The Family and School Partnership Act is legislation passed by the Florida State Legislature that intends to strengthen parent involvement with the school through improved communication and awareness of opportunities for involvement. One requirement of the law is that the school district develop a Parent Checklist for parents to use as a self-assessment on how they are involved with their child(ren)’s success in school. You may want to post this in your home as a reminder of positive actions for school success.
- Please review the following statements to see how you can help your child succeed in learning and achieving and how you can become more involved with the school.
- This review is only for your use and reflection. It is not meant to be returned to the school. It belongs to you as a guide for involvement.
- You are encouraged to discuss these reflections with your child(ren).
IMPORTANCE OF SCHOOL SUCCESS
- I talk with my child about how important school is.
- I encourage my child to do his/her best.
- I help my child set goals for school.
- I celebrate school successes with my child.
- I listen to my child’s concerns about school. I act upon these concerns in a helpful, supportive way.
