TIME Magazine recently published a poll on Americans’ Views on Teacher Tenure, Merit Pay and Other Education Reforms.

In answer to the question “What do you think would improve student achievement the most?” 54 percent said “More involved parents.” That was nearly 30% higher than the next most popular answer (“more effective teachers”).

Perhaps politicians and districts might “get” that there is support out there for putting greater resources into parent engagement…..

Thanks to Thoughts On Education Policy for the tip.
