Goal 2: Train School Teams to Develop and Maintain School-Family-Community Partnerships. A major activity of the Partnership Project is providing two-day training workshops and on-going technical assistance to school-based teams. The action-oriented teams from schools in several districts develop and maintain programs of school, family, and community partnerships focused on student success. The training is based on Epstein’s framework which helps the state and its schools work well with the National Network of Partnership Schools. The Project also conducts a competitive grants program for small cash stipends to support partnerships in schools with high educational and economic needs. "Hot Topic" workshops are conducted twice a year for school teams on subjects such as how partnerships support early literacy, improve student behavior, and reduce violence in schools and communities.

Community Involvement School Administrators Article S C H O O L A D M I N I S T R A T O R S A R T I C L E Part of a national partnership program to encourage parent and community involvement in schools, a parent resource center in a Connecticut middle school helps parents understand their middle-school-age youngsters. Included: Tips for starting a parent center in your school! Parents of middle school children often ponder why a once-loving child seems to change, almost overnight, as puberty approaches. A formerly sweet child now sulks. Respect turns to belligerence and intelligent behavior gives way to irresponsible conduct. For many parents of middle school children, the terrible twos would be a welcome change from the turbulent teens. Timothy Neville, principal of Kennedy Middle School in Enfield, Connecticut, said parents are often filled with anxiety and concern when children become teenagers. Parents often tell Neville their child was fine until he or she got to middle school. "I think middle school is a difficult age," Neville said. "Lots of things happen when kids become teens."

Some items may be objectionable for a child. Software products are available that help keep the Internet "safe" by blocking Web sites and newsgroups containing inappropriate materials. It is important to remember that parental-control programs are helpful., but they do only part of the job.
