I would create programs that would enhance the learning of our parents. In working with thousands of students in the urban school districts, I find that many of them are struggling because their parents are not fully equipped and/or educated. By properly educating the parents, including parental classes, they can then help and assist their students as well as continue to build self-esteem across the board. In addition, I would provide books for parents and students and develop additional projects that would center around students, however, it would benefit the parents as well.
