Parents, Community, and the Nongraded Primary: Making a Successful Transition.

Petrie, Garth; Lindauer, Patricia; McKinney, Rebecca

Contemporary Education, v69 n2 p92-94 Win 1998

Parents and community members must be educated to understand nongraded primary education and how primary age children need to be schooled in order to provide the best education. The larger school community should play a significant role in developing and implementing nongraded plans. Schools must encourage parents and community volunteers to participate in children's education. (SM)
