DO attend school events like football games and theater productions. DON’T let your child intimidate you into not coming. There is a parent section and they won’t even know you’re there!

8. DO take an active role in your child’s education
DO take an active role in your child’s education. If you have a concern the teacher. It’s the most efficient way to communicate.
