[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am an affluent AA parent at a Silver Spring school. Do you want to know what I am doing? I am sitting on committees with the staff and administration to address the achievement gap, I am advocating with the school board on my own time, I am participating in meetings about behavior and social emotional learning. No, I am no taking casseroles for staff appreciation, or supervising the moon bounce at a carnival. But don't assume that I am not there and being an active participant in what our family values about education.[/quote] Do you feel like your input is listened to and valued? I have been on so many committees, advocated at the BOE etc., and it just seems like parent input is completely ignored and devalued. Have you seen them actually adopt any of your suggestions or change what they were previously doing? If so, I would love to know some tips.[/quote]
