8 Strategies to boost student achievement

Disc 7 - Build Relationships of Mutual Respect with Parents.
This single DVD from the Under-Resourced Learners series of 8 , accompanies the book by the same title. A perfect fit for staff development, at staff meetings, or with an in-house book study.
In this DVD, Dr. Payne discusses how to make it possible for all parents to be part of the support system at school, regardless of their varying parenting style. She makes recommendations for working with parents including:
- Creating communities of support for parents
- Building mutual respect with parents
- Setting parameters and boundaries of your campus
- Working with both resourced and under-resourced parents
A "one-size-fits-all" approach never works. Use this DVD to get ideas for relating to parents as assets and allies in the education of their children – your students.
Bonus: Role play vignettes with real students and administrators, demonstrating key concepts. Hear the debriefing too!
