Moving Right Along

Engaging Parents for Student Success in the Middle Grades

 

The transition to the middle grades can be an apprehensive time for parents and students. But for school leaders it also presents a wonderful opportunity to help parents when they want it most. What your school does—or doesn’t do—during the transition will have a lasting impact on your students and their parents.

The Moving Right Along kit is a compilation of over 200 pages of experience- and research-based resources to help you ensure a smooth transition from elementary to middle grades. It will help both elementary and secondary school leaders prepare parents and their rising students to meet new challenges and open up a meaningful dialogue for success that can last throughout the middle years and beyond.

 


Appropriate for both elementary and secondary schools, this kit contains all of these helpful components:

1.

Two ways to present!

 

A DVD with a ready-to-use enhanced PowerPoint® presentation professionally narrated and presented by The Parent Institute: Secrets of Success in the Middle Grades.

 

A CD-ROM containing the PowerPoint® presentation with a suggested script for your own presentation to parents, and Leader's Guide complete with an agenda, discussion topics and tips for conducting successful meetings youself, plus all of the kit's reproducible materials for future use.

 

2.

 

A ready-to-implement campaign complete with planning materials and handouts for your transition events. It includes:

  • program profiles;
  • sample invitations and media releases to engage the community;
  • checklists, timelines;
  • ways to work with your feeder schools;
  • copy-ready materials to put into the transition packet;
  • and much more!

There are also ideas for the first week of school and ways to keep the momentum going for years to come!
