Last week’s survey on current college parent experiences and this week’s survey on future college parent expectations both point out a desire by parents to be involved in and supportive of their children’s college education. You are concerned about academics, finances and the health and safety of your children, among many other issues. You are also asked - or in the case of future college parents expect to be asked - for advice and assistance in the areas listed above, as well as increasingly in the area of career planning. We believe that parental involvement, properly channeled, can be extremely empowering to your children as they embark on a journey to and through college. Please share your story of how parental involvement can lead to student success. The level of involvement described can be as simple as a meaningful conversation or as elaborate as your family’s working encourage college and career success. Thank you for sharing your story and please forward to a friend so that more families may benefit from our parent community dialogue.
