About the Book

Our schools have a great deal to offer if people know how to use them well. When parents, teachers, and children understand each other, and the system, everybody benefits. You can best help your school by being supportive, by encouraging the people in the system, and by understanding what the school can and cannot do. This book will help you become an informed parent acting responsibly for positive results.
