Most parents are highly involved in their child's education in the elementary years. As time goes on and the child goes to middle school, parent involvement slowly starts to diminish. Finally when the child is in high school there are few parents that are actively involved with the school, school functions, grades (until progress reports go out), or school supplies. My question to my fellow educators is: (1) What are some ways that high schools can get parents more involved? and (2) Why is it, you think, that parents slowly start to get less involved as their child gets older?
