Craighead on integrating parents


question: 
How will you integrate parents, especially those who speak a second language, into discussions about their children's education?
answer: 

Our students come from many different socio-economic and cultrual backgrounds. We must realize that many students, and their parents, are English language learners and their needs must be met. This is especially important when a child's educational path is concerned. Tutors, programs and aid support must be readily available. Having these parents coming to the school and actually seeing what the student is learning not just taking the students word
