Teachers Involving Parents

The link between parent involvement and stu-dent achievement is documented by decadesof research*. Yet teachers rarely get the trainingthey need to effectively involve parents.

The Teachers Involving Parents (TIP) Programwas developed by the same team that produced thedefinitive Hoover-Dempsey & Sandler research modelexplaining why and how parents get involved. Ithelps teachers 1) engage parents to improve studentachievement, 2) develop specific tools and strategiesto support parent involvement and 3) build confi-dence in their ability to work effectively with familiesand confidence in families’ abilities to make a posi-tive difference in their children’s schooling.

The TIP Program strengthens connections amongteachers as colleagues to produce measurable, posi-tive change in school-home partnerships. Six 90-minute sessions are grounded in research and con-sist of individual and group activities, contributionsfrom participants and sharing of ideas and strategies:

Session 1: What is parent involvement and why is itimportant?

Session 2: Overcoming obstacles and barriers to parentinvolvement

Session 3: What do we know about parents?Session 4: Let’s talk: family-school communicationSession 5: What’s working in parent involvement?

(And what’s not working?)Session 6: Working together for improved parental

involvement practices
