Parent Resources
-
Below is a list of websites that I believe would be helpful to parents. Included in the list are sites related to homework help, parenting tips and learning disabilities.
Remember, When parents are involved in their children’s education at home, they do better in school. And when parents are involved in school, children go farther in school—and the schools they go to are better.
