Thanks, I haven't had a chance to read it yet.

The irony of commitment is that it’s deeply liberating-in work, in play, in love. The act frees you from the tyranny of your internal critic, from the fear that likes to dress itself up and parade around as rational hesitation. To commit is to remove your head as the barrier to your life. --Anne Morris

There is also some articles in the Jan 06 of PTO Today on involvement that pertain to this. Not sure if they are available on the website yet.

Thank you so much. Everything I've been able to find so far refers to the same study done over 10 years ago.

I have been asked to do a speech to try to motivate our parents to get involved to help increase our test scores. The thing is, I don't know where to look to find facts to back this statement up. I mean, it seems logical, but has anyone done a study or report on it? Please help me, if you have read an article or study on this and tell me where I can find it. I don't want to give a speech without having a shred of proof to back it up. Thanks.
