Schools, Parents and Communities Working Together These middle grades resources can help parents and communities work more effectively with schools that serve young adolescents. Principals, teachers and other school leaders will find resources that can help forge stronger community partnerships. A CONVERSATION WITH A SCHOOL-FAMILIES RESEARCHER In the late summer of 2003, about 50 members of the MiddleWeb Listserv joined school/family expert Anne Henderson for an important conversation about strengthening the linkages between middle schools and the families of the students they serve. TWELVE THINGS PARENTS SHOULD KNOW The complete title of this excellent handout from Parent Leadership Associates, Inc. is "As a Parent, Here are 12 Things You Should Know About and Expect From Your Schools and Yourself." It describes why parent involvement is important, what parents should expect from schools, and what schools hope for from parents. Poorly run schools will want to avoid this one! Here's a quote: "You're more likely to get what you want for your child if you work with other parents. If you are in a school that is not parent-friendly, administrators might perceive you as a fruitcake or a member of a powerful organization, depending on how many allies you have."

Your son won't do what he must do. He drives me crazy, yes it's true! He will stall and squirm and hum, and leave all of his work undone. He dreams and will not pay attention, have you considered medication? With other kids he does not play, he is alone much of the day. Something does not seem quite right, because I know he must be bright. He seems to learn, despite the rest, but the work is not his best. He is disruptive, yes it's true. He just won't do what he must do! Yes, teacher, I can really see, how frustrating all this must be, A child who does not meet the norm, a child whose mold won't fit the form. I've had him tested on WISC-III, by your approved test agency. He scores far higher than the mean, there's more to this that can be seen. So help us, help us find the way, to teach this child best if we may. He is not like the rest you see, he acts and thinks far differently.
