Reviews

I see such a difference in students who have parents who are involved in their education. With the time constraints and demands educators face, books with ideas and activities are a necessity in every classroom. This book presents strategies and ideas in an easy-to-use format. This book is a great resource for educators. --Sara Cope, Principal and Former Teacher, BonDeCroft Elementary, Sparta, Tennessee Hindin and Mueller have written an important book about how teachers can encourage parent engagement in their child's education. The book is friendly, inviting, and filled with practical suggestions. Involving parents is a key way that teachers can help children reach their full potential. Getting Parents on Board is a must-have for all teachers. --Lesley Mandel Morrow, Ph.D., Distinguished Professor of Literacy, Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey Getting Parents on Board is a timely, practical, and important reference for teachers, administrators, and parents who are trying to build lasting parent-school relationships. This book is a must-read in a time when it essential for schools to not only develop partnerships, but increase math and literacy achievement for every child. --Patricia A. Edwards, Professor, Michigan State University and Past President of the International Literacy Association and Literacy Research Association
