Field #11: Parental Involvement

 

Parental Involvement:
Parent and teacher responses from the SALT Survey


This indicator is based on parent and teacher responses to the SALT Survey; the graphs show responses to several of the questions that contributed to the Parental Involvement Indicator. The graphs show both the response from the individual school and the statewide average by school level (elementary, middle, or high school). The graphs also show the responses on the most recent SALT Survey (2002) and the previous survey (2000).

The Parental Involvement Indicator denotes whether families are comfortable in school environments and are fully engaged in supporting their child’s learning by helping with homework, attending conferences, participating in school-improvement activities, and communicating with teachers. It also show whether the schools provide ongoing opportunities to communicate with parents and whether they are creative in their approaches to help reluctant families feel comfortable working with teachers.
