The AFT believes that a strong partnership between schools and parents is essential to the academic well-being of students. When school staff and parents work together to reinforce high standards of conduct and achievement, the result is a school that "works," a learning environment that promotes success.

In this special section of our Web site, we present information on topics that parents frequently ask us about, as well and ideas about how families can help their children be successful in school—from improving homework time to selecting rigorous courses. We hope you'll find these resources useful and welcome ideas for additional topics.
