Abstract

This article examines the parent involvement practices and philosophies of an urban education model that has been integral in developing collaborative relationships between parents and schools . This model sought to enhance student performance by redefining school as the extended family for urban students and parents. A 4-year study concluded that when parents were involved with this process, student achievement and parental commitment to education far surpassed that of students and parents who remained in the more traditional school setting.
