tead of a tip this week, I have a resource to offer you that will help get your message across about the importance of parent involvement.

It's from our sister website, SchoolFamily.com. If you haven't visited SchoolFamily yet, it's filled with information to help parents help their children succeed in school. Topics range from how best to help your child with homework to tips for communicating with the teacher to explanations of academic expectations for each grade level.

The resource is a newsfeed from SchoolFamily to use on your own parent group or school website or blog. It features articles on the importance of getting involved in your child's education -- articles like ''5 Reasons To Get Involved.'' You can get the newsfeed for your website here:


SchoolFamily.com newsfeed for parent group and school websites.

As encouragement, we're offering a copy of PTO Today's Parent Involvement Toolkit to any parent group that uses the newsfeed. I think you'll like the newsfeed. It's easy to use, and it will make you look good for providing helpful information to parents.
