Parent Power

The Sioux Center Board of Education believes that parents and the community are essential partners with the schools. 

Studies of successful schools report that parent involvement is a major factor in their outcomes, including closing the achievement gap between various groups of students. The President of the United States is asking that parents make education a priority and a legacy for their family.  The publication, Parent Power, provides useful information to parents on how this can be accomplished.  By adopting the principles explained in the book and taking the steps indicated for each age group, parents will be able to help their child learn at each step of the way and ensure success in school and in life.  The US Department of Education’s new publication, Parent Power, is available at the following link:
