National Standards for Family-School Partnerships

More than 30 years of research shows that family involvement promotes student success. No matter what their family income or background may be, students with involved parents are more likely to:

• Earn higher grades and test scores
• Pass their classes
• Attend school regularly
• Have better social skills and adapt well to school
• Go on to postsecondary education
