Having a good relationship between the adults at home and school is vital for the success of children throughout their schooling. This relationship can often feel one sided, but what if thereis another reason why the relationship between home and school is strained? Barriers that families face can interfere with their ability to be active participants in their children’s education. Helping to break down these barriers is important to establishing a positive home-school relationship.  \nHome and school are the two places where children spend a large portion of their time for 18 years. Would it not make sense that those two places are engaged in a relationship as each helps to grow and morph children into individuals that one day could make an impact on the world we live in? As a new educator with very little experience, I taught at a local school where many of the families were experiencing a low socio-economic status (SES) . Very little parental involvement became the norm as we worked to ensure students were set up for success. Many emails and phone calls were left unanswered, and parent teachers, meetings, and learning events were unattended. I just assumed that families were not interested in being part of their children’s education without really exploring whether there was a reason for their distance.  \nLast year, while working with more families from the Ukraine and Syria, I experienced something that made me question what I had assumed about parental involvement. These families from overseas struggled to be involved in their child’s education, but they wanted to beas involved as they could. That sparked a thought: Are all families who are presenting as uninterested or uninvolved facing obstacles or barriers to their involvement? Instead of assuming that parents were not interested in being a part of their children’s education, I needed to consider why families were not involved.  \nThis article explores the barriers that families face as they are trying to be actively involved in their children’s education. Regardless of how involved a family is, they ultimately want their children to do the best they can in school, and as educators our goal is to provide the best education possible for those children (Manitoba Education, 2011) . This often includes involving families in the educational process and empowering families to realize the impact they have on their children’s education. For some families, however, the barriers that are stacked up against them prevent them from being involved. Taking away the assumption that families do not want to be involved helps to shine light on why they are not involved, and the barriers families might be facing as they try to become involved in their children’s schooling.  \nParental Involvement Defined  \nParental involvement means many things. Parental involvement is more complex than simply communicating with school through email, phone calls, and face-to-face conversations. Epstein (1992) outlined six different ways in which a parent can be involved in their children’s education: parenting, communicating, volunteering and attending events, decision making, learning at home, and collaborating with the community. Families therefore have various access points to their children’s education and how they can be involved. Regardless of how families become involved, it is clear among researchers that parental involvement is important for the success of children at all levels in home, school, and the community (Lechuga-Pena, 2018) .  \nAnother important term that came to light is what we call the people who support children at home and school. Families have so many dynamics that it is not just parents who care for the children outside of school. Using terms such as caregiver, or more broadly fa","cbCaigxNkFGe8gJO","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaigxNkFGe8gJO","pdf",163939,"English","# Abstract\n# Parental Involvement Defined\n# Barriers to Parental Involvement\n## English as an Additional Language","[{\"question\":\"Why does the article argue that home-school relationships can become strained?\",\"answer\":\"It explains that barriers families face can interfere with their ability to be active participants in their children’s education, making the relationship feel one-sided.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the article define parental involvement?\",\"answer\":\"It describes parental involvement as more complex than communication alone, referencing multiple forms such as parenting, communicating, volunteering and attending events, decision making, learning at home, and collaborating with the community.\"},{\"question\":\"What barriers are highlighted for immigrant families with limited language skills?\",\"answer\":\"Limited English skills make it difficult to communicate with teachers, understand letters and homework sent home, volunteer at school, and participate in school life, sometimes leading to incomplete work or notes not returned.\"}]","Going Beyond the School Doors - Home-School Partnerships | PDF",1792080755,13]
