Your Role & Responsibility
The parents of students play an integral part in the educational process of the student. The research has been done numerous times and the results are definite – Parents are the most important influence in their child’s school success! Some research has even shown that parent support is more critical to student success than economic issues.
The PEP Program recognizes this and looks to their parents as partners in the educational success of the students. PEP welcomes parental involvement – whether it be attending meetings, cooking for the night PEP students, or coming in to discuss any student-centered issues.
