In this episode, we discuss the significant role parents play in their children's academic success, especially in light of recent disheartening trends in national reading and math scores post-pandemic. Dr. Kathy shares insights on how parental involvement—or the lack thereof—can impact student achievement. A survey of 700 elementary and middle school teachers revealed that nearly half attributed students' struggles to a lack of prioritization of academics at home. Join us as we explore the importance of parental influence and consider ways to enhance our involvement in our children's education for better outcomes.
