  Videos For Increasing Parent Involvement
The Harold J. Ballard Parent Center offers a library of videos for schools to borrow in order to explore ways to increase parent involvement. Videos come with handouts containing suggestions for the most effective methods for supporting a training activity. 
Video #1, "It's as Simple as ABC"
Offers motivational reasons from both parents and teachers for why it is important to have parents involved in the school setting. Audience: parents and teachers.

 

Video #2, "The More We Get Together"
Offers suggestions from both parents and teachers for parents to use with their children at home in improving reading skills, in solving math problems, for developing social skills and belonging to a school community. Audience: parents.
Video #3, "Getting Parents Involved with School"
Presents practical tips from teachers and parents for increasing parent involvement. Audience: teachers.
These videos were developed in a collaborative effort by the San Diego Education Association, Parent Institute for Quality Education, Union of Pan Asian Communities, Center for Parent Involvement in Education, and the San Diego City School's Parent Involvement Department. Financial support was graciously provided by Pacific Telesis.
