    The Parent Academy targets three key pillars:

    • Student Achievement – workshops and activities that provide strategies and tools for parents to support academic achievement at home and in school

    • Parenting/Advocacy – workshops for parents and caregivers to build and increase their effectiveness in advocating on behalf of children
