The National Standards for Parent/Family
Involvement Programs
National PTA, building on the work of Dr. Joyce Epstein of Johns
Hopkins University,
has developed six standards for effective parent involvement programs.
The standards
are guidelines for use in developing programs to involve parents
and families.
Comprehensive local parent/family involvement programs will be
most effective if the include all the standards. Keep these standards
in mind when planning parent involvement programs and activities.
Standard 1:
Communicating: Communication between home and school
is regular, two-way, and meaningful.
Standard II:
Parenting: Parenting skills are promoted and supportinfo.
Standard III:
Student Learning: Parents play an integral role
in assisting student learning.
Standard IV:
Volunteering: Parents are welcome in the school,
and their support and assistance are sought.
Standard V:
School Decision Making and Advocacy: Parents are
full partners in the decisions that affect children and families.
Standard VI:
Collaborating with Community: Community resources
are used to strengthen schools, families, and student learning.
