The impact of parent involvement in a child’s education has been explored in countless studies and reports.  The following conclusions are just a few benefits supported by research: 

  • Parent involvement leads to increased academic achievement for students whose parent(s) are involved.

  • Parent involvement decreases absenteeism.

  • Parent involvement positively influences student attitude and behavior.

  • Parent involvement improves teacher morale.

Parental involvement and engagement in education matters now more than ever and it’s never too late to get connected.  

Parent Academy Trainings & 2023-2024 Title 1 Plans

We are seeking to ensure we build our capacities as a community. We wanted to inform you of home learning opportunities offered through DCPS’s Parent Academy. The links provided below are to the course catalog for the Parent Academy and webinars for families to use to address behavior issues, social emotional needs at home, and academic needs of students. We will continue to add to these offerings throughout the school year as they happen, so that you may attend face to face or through recorded webinars. We thank you for your continued support of our faculty, staff, and administrators. Always remember we are the PRIDE of the Eastside!
