Family Involvment

By Elsa Valdez

Candidate for Member, Governing Board; San Bernardino City Unified School District

This information is provided by the candidate
Study after study illustrates that in addition to highly qualified teachers, family involvement has been shown to increase student test scores, graduation rates, college going rates, and a major reduction in behavioral problems.
Dr. Valdez supports having a family resource center in all district school sites so that parents can have access to technology resources, family empowerment workshops, and other skills-based programs that will enable all families to be engaged and involved in their children's educational development from pre-k to 12th grade.
