So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." ~ Mark Twain THE #1 DIFFERENCE IN CHILDREN'S SCHOLASTIC SUCCESS Research done by US military schools has shown success depends on parental involvement. You can model their success by simply inviting your parents into your school and ask them to be active in the classroom. Make parents feel welcomed anytime they can come, and call their employers asking them to give parents time to come. Parents who are supported by the work place and encouraged to actively participate in the classroom will improve test scores more than any other single activity. Culture cramming may be a foundational belief of modern parenting but, according to the data, it doesn't improve early childhood test scores. Frequent museum visits would seem to be no more productive than trips to the grocery store. Watching TV, meanwhile, doesn't turn a child's brain into mush after all; nor does the presence of a home computer turn a child into Einstein.

Sign up for our weekly e-mail newsletter July 2001: Vol. 188, No. 7 Cover Story Research School Law Your Turn ... In Our Print Edition Educators know that parents are a child's first teachers. Some schools act on that knowledge by operating centers where parents and other family members can get to know each other and the school and learn to help and support their children's education. Opening the school doors this way is a welcome gesture for all parents, but research shows it can be especially important for poor and minority families. During my visits to schools, I look for these parent and family centers. In one small, rural school, I found a postage stamp-sized gathering place in a former workroom off the library. "We've got a phone, some books and magazines, and we can use the computers when the kids are in the lunchroom," said a mom with a preschooler on her lap. "I like to come here, even though we're a bit squished for space." Researchers would approve of both parent centers. You don't need extensive resources to open a center what's important, say researchers at Wisconsin's Department of Public Instruction, is giving parents "a place to hang their hats" and helping them feel more like "insiders, not outsiders." As John Benson, the state's superintendent of public instruction, puts it: "Parents belong in schools just as much as their children do."

The Board and staff of the Greater Washington Urban League congratulate the National Achievers Society Class of 2004. On October 3, 2004, at 19th Street Church, 49 middle, junior, and senior high school students from Washington, DC, Prince George's County, Maryland and Montgomery County, Maryland were inducted into the National Achievers Society. Each of the student inductees demonstrate on a daily basis that "Achievement Matters" by working to achieve and maintain a 3.0 or better GPA. The guest speaker at this year's induction ceremony was Winford Galmon, "Artist to the Starts." Mr. Galmon, encouraged the students to listen to their inner voice for positive guidance. During the ceremony, he unvailed two of his latest works in his jazz series. He also donated two signed prints to the League to give to the two students with the highest GPA. The mistress of ceremonies for the ceremony was Justine Love of WPGC radio. To date, over four hundred students have been inducted into the Greater Washington Urban League's chapter of the National Achievers Society. As members of the society, the students are provided with a variety of resource materials, educational and cultural enrichment opportunities as well as assistance with post-secondary education preparation and application processes.
