Get Involved in your child’s education and cope with Remote Learning

Studies demonstrate that the more involved parents are in their children’s learning, the more their kids will benefit academically. You can do a lot to help your child’s performance, from talking with your children about their school work to monitoring their school progress and communicating with teachers and other school staff.

COVID-19 has taken an unprecedented toll on our education system. To better cope with the effects of distance learning while the pandemic is ongoing, we created a list of resources for students, parents and educators.
