As I have stated in my philosophy of teaching, teaching the social sciences is all about "paying it forward" to society. As parents of remarkable young individuals, you too can follow this philosophy and not only assist your student, but countless others. When society rallies around its youth, they are investing in a progressive and positive future. According to recent findings, there is a strong correlation between parental involvement and a student's success in the classroom. Together, we can all give back to our community and keep it moving in a positive direction for future generations.
