Involving Low-Income Parents in the Schools: Communitycentric Strategies for School Counselors

Abstract: Low-income parents participate less in schools than higher-income parents despite the benefits of parent involvement. Barriers that low-income parents face suggest that schools must develop a new approach to engaging these parents. School counselors can play a leadership role in strengthening the relationship between schools and low-income parents by implementing community-centered strategies for parent involvement. These strategies respect community culture and parents’ abilities to contribute to their childr… Show more

“…Söz konusu durumda bu varlık öğrencinin akademik başarını artırır ve okul üyelerini motive eder (Ahmad ve Bin Said, 2013). Eğitim liderinin rolü, ev-okul ilişkisinin geliştirilmesinde çok önemlidir (Van Velsor ve Orozco, 2006;Stelmach ve Preston, 2008). Öğretmenler bir liderlik eğitimi almadan yönetim kademesine terfi ettirilmekte (Alam, 2012), sahip oldukları profesyonel niteliklerin yeni görevleriyle ilişkili olmaması (MOE, 1998), toplumun dahil edilmesi konusunda yetersiz kalmalarına neden olmaktadır.…”

“…Although both schools were Title I schools, parents' ethnicity, annual income, and level of education differed across the samples. These differences are important because research and theory suggest that demographic characteristics greatly influence the amount of social capital parents posses and bring to their understanding of new social roles (Burchinal, Follmer, & Bryant, 1996;Horvat, Weininger, & Lareau, 2003;VanVelsor & Orozco, 2007).…”

“…L'actualisation de telles pratiques dans le champ social (au sein des organismes communautaires, par exemple) entrave le processus d'appropriation de compétences de la part du parent, décourage son implication auprès de l'enfant et a pour conséquence d'invalider l'action potentielle des ressources et des facteurs de protection dont la famille est vectrice (Vandenberg et Grealish, 1996 ;Boulanger, 2007 ;Larose, Couturier et Boulanger, 2007). L'intégration manifeste d'une logique déficitaire aux pratiques qui se réalisent dans le domaine de l'éducation est fortement reconnue au plan international (Vincent et Tomblinson, 1997 ;Chen et Chandler, 2001 ;Crozier, 2001 ;Jordan, Orozco et Averett, 2001 ;Henderson et Mapp, 2002 ;Boethel, 2003Boethel, , 2004Gewirtz et al, 2005 ;Crozier et Davies, 2007 ;Van Velsor et Orozco, 2007). Chez les personnels scolaires, l'invalidation des compétences éducatives parentales se reflète directement dans la nature des pratiques visant à solliciter l'implication du parent au cheminement scolaire de l'enfant (Cairney, 2000).…”

“…Chez les personnels scolaires, l'invalidation des compétences éducatives parentales se reflète directement dans la nature des pratiques visant à solliciter l'implication du parent au cheminement scolaire de l'enfant (Cairney, 2000). L'investissement du parent dans le cadre du cheminement scolaire de l'enfant étant jugé problématique, les personnels scolaires l'invitent généralement peu à l'école (Van Velsor et Orozco, 2007). Son implication se restreint alors le plus souvent à l'espace familial, les personnels scolaires lui acheminant de l'information formelle et suscitant de sa part un soutien minimal aux travaux scolaires de l'élève réalisés à la maison NPS, vol.…”
