• W144960766 abstract "This review of the literature on parental involvement in urban schools is organized into three sections: (1) types of parental involvement; (2) practical involvement activities found in successful urban school programs; and (3) characteristics of successful urban school parental involvement programs. The research reports and surveys reviewed clearly indicate that the majority of parents do want to be involved in their children's education, but many do not know how they can help. Most teachers also want involved parents. Several examples from the research indicate that problems in promoting parent involvement are not insurmountable. Small steps can lead to positive gains and to an acknowledgment of the ability of the public school system to provide a quality education for all children. (Contains 14 references.)
