Parent involvement topic of conference

Parents often wonder how they can become more involved in their children’s schooling. A FREE conference slated for Aug. 15-16 in Sioux Falls will help them find meaningful ways to do just that. The conference is hosted by the South Dakota Department of Education and South Dakota Parent Information and Resource Center. It will be held at the Downtown Holiday Inn.

The conference theme is “Partnerships with Families Create Success: Make This the Best School Year Ever!” Karen Mapp, author of “Beyond the Bake Sale,” will offer a keynote presentation. South Dakota’s Secretary of Education Rick Melmer also will address the group. Schools are asked to share this information with interested parents.
