http://www.middleweb.com/mw/resources/MWRpublic.html

Extractions: 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 WONDERFUL TOOL TO CONNECT WITH PARENTS "This is the most valuable thing I've ever done with my students," one middle school teacher wrote about the "Million Words" assignment. "I've built an instant bond with parents," said another. Here's how it works: The teacher sends a note home with students asking parents to "tell us about your child in a million words or less." Just about every teacher on the MiddleWeb Listserv who tried this idea was amazed by the breadth and depth of the response and the valuable insights they gained into their students' lives. Read this archived conversation, which includes a link to one teacher's actual letter to parents WHAT PARENTS NEED TO KNOW ABOUT MIDDLE SCHOOL REFORM "The challenge of the middle grades is to devote equal attention both to students' affective needs and to their academic needs," school reform advocate Hayes Mizell says in this public lecture sponsored by the Nyack NY Partners in Education. "Achieving these results is not easy," Mizell admits, "but schools are more likely to achieve them if they partner with parents." What are parents' appropriate roles in middle school reform? Mizell offers some answers, drawing on many web-based resources which are linked to this important article.
Affluent Parents Of Young Children: Neglected Parent Education Audience
and the University of connecticut Cooperative Extension and have access to many resources,are less interested in participating in parent education programs.
http://www.joe.org/joe/1998february/a2.html

Extractions: New Haven, Connecticut Introduction NEPEM recognizes that there are diverse types of parent audiences and underscores the importance of Extension educators being knowledgeable about and sensitive to the particular needs of each group with whom they work. A review of recent research indicates that many Extension family life educators have heeded this recommendation. As a group, affluent couples, and more recently, affluent families, have been well studied by researchers interested in explaining, predicting, and anticipating their business, financial, and purchasing decisions (Crispell, 1994; Seiter, 1992). However, there has not been parallel interest in looking at the parenting concerns in these families. The purpose of this study was to assess the parent education needs of a group of affluent parents of young children.

March 2003 For many years teacher unions have been identified as perhaps THE greatest impediments to implementing real reform in our schools. But what can be done about them, and where else can teachers go to address common problems? Find out in the newest issue of Parent Power! In the News: CLASS STRUGGLE: IS HOMEWORK REALLY SO TERRIBLE? "This allegedly overburdened American child, innocent victim of callous teachers, is averaging less than a half hour of homework each school night.... Schools that demand a half hour a day of academic work at home, less than a fifth of the time these same children spend watching television, do not seem to me to be overdoing it."
