Abstract | This document describes the development, implementation, and evaluation of a 10-week parent effectiveness training program to improve black elementary school student attitudes and participation in extracurricular activities by improving the attitudes of their parents towards school. The program was developed in consultation with teachers and counselors and includes the following goals: (1) improve parent attitudes through time management; (2) improve the parent-child relationship through interpersonal communication; (3) improve parent discipline strategies; (4) improve parents' ability to serve as role models and encourage their children to participate in extracurricular activities through role playing; (5) improve parents' ability to interpret test scores, school reports, and homework; (6) improve parent participation in the Parent Teacher Association; (7) improve parents' ability to communicate with school personnel; and (8) improve the parent-school relationship by giving parents the opportunity to meet school personnel. Pre- and postsurveys and pre- and postinterviews administered to the 22 participants indicated improvements in parent attitudes and their perceptions of their children's attitudes. Areas for further research are suggested. Statistical data are presented in four tables. The following materials are appended: (1) four tables of statistical data comparing black and white discipline and extracurricular activity participation; (2) copies of the survey and interview questionnaires; (3) four graphs illustrating responses to the pre- and post-surveys and the pre- and post-interviews; (4) two recruitment posters; and (5) a 12-item bibliography.
