Abstract | This article describes the 1st-year evaluation of a community-wide parent and family involvement program initiated in a midsized Southeast community and school district. The program consists of three major components: community-wide efforts, school-home communication, and home involvement. Formative and summative evaluation data were gathered through survey forms, telephone interviews, and focus groups involving parents, school administrators, teachers, and students. Results show that community-wide efforts were favorably regarded by participants but led to relatively few changes in parents' levels of involvement. School administrators and teachers viewed most aspects of school-home communication as more positive and more effective than did parents. All stakeholders considered home involvement important, but discrepancies were evident among the responses made by teachers, parents, and students. Recommendations for improving parent involvement programs are discussed. (As Provided). |
