The program is called V.I.P’s or Very
Important Partners. This program is composed of the community, the principal,
teachers, parents/guardians and students. Our school has forty percent of homes
that are either one parent homes, grandparents raising grandchildren or
children being raised by other family members. This is an alarming number and
our students are fighting a battle (academic success) that can’t be won without
parental support and involvement. Our school has a tremendous number of office referrals
and negative attitudes toward homework that something has to be implemented in
order for our students to obtain n success. According to “No Child Left Behind”
parents need to be aware of what is being taught in the classroom, and don’t
teach strategies and shortcuts that conflict with the approach the teacher is
using. The strategies I recommend are grade specific and organized by the
teacher,
parent and community. We will hands on, weekly meeting, the teacher will teach the parent or guarding specific strategies that will be taught to their child in the upcoming week. The parent will be taught the skill a week before the student, thus providing the parent with the training he or she needs to successfully work with his or her child. We will be implementing real word approaches in our parent tutorial sessions (cooking, shopping, sports, music, creating and constructing). The community (The Greenwood Senior Center) has been willing to donate their time for childcare during our tutorial sessions.
