The Effect of Parental Involvement In Academic Achievement

The Effect of Parental Involvement In Academic Achievement | Eclectic Technology | Scoop.it
Students with two parents operating in supportive roles are 52% more likely to enjoy school and get straight A’s than students whose parents are disengaged.
Beth Dichter's insight:

This infographic plus post explores the effect of parental involvement in academic achievement and it will probably come as no surprise that students whom have parents that are more engaged in school do better.  The post states "The influence of parental involvement on a student’s academic success should not be underestimated. While brain power, work ethic, and even genetics all play important roles in student achievement, the determining factor comes down to what kind of support system she has at home."
When you go to the post you will find a full version of the infographic that is easy to read.
