[quote=Anonymous]ES in Bethesda. Parent participation is excellent. Actually we just won an award for most volunteer hours put in - perhaps through MCCPTA or something. The school closely regulates how parents participate in the classroom, and rightly so. Parents in the classroom can be more of a hindrance than a help - and it's a huge privacy concern. For a few overwhelmed teachers with big classes, parents are allowed to come in and help (ex: with writing prompts for the older kids). Parents monitor the playground. But mostly parents go through the school PTA to organize themselves into committees that help all the children. Cultural enrichment, after-school activities, fun events, STEM enrichment, fundraisers, after-school tutoring, etc, are all organized by the PTA. [/quote]
