When parents get involved in their children’s education, it pays off. Research shows that 
children whose parents are actively involved are more likely to:

. Earn higher grades and test scores
. Enroll in higher-level programs
. Be promoted and earn credits
. Adapt well to school
. Attend school regularly
. Have better social skills
. Show improved behavior
. Graduate and go to college
 

Research has shown that students with involved parents have better motivation, higher self-esteem, and are less likely to use drugs and alcohol. And the more that parents participate, the better their children perform. 

Parent involvement has important effects on schools, too. Strong parent involvement leads to better school facilities, better teacher and staff morale, better learning programs, and more resources overall. Happier, better-behaved children getting better grades, scoring better on tests, and improving their chances to go on to higher education. Schools with happier teachers, better facilities, and more resources. That's the power of parent involvement!
