There are 345,960 persons
(Black, White, Hispanic and oth- .

and underemployment are the pri-
mary conditions that generate a
variety of frustrations. That frus-
tration, sociologists say, is often

munity. ce BA

Many of the editorials and ar-
ticles I’ve read reflect many writ-
ers’ lack of knowledge about the
recent factors that have occurred
this year that have frustrated par-
ents who have had their children
in this school. And although, I do
not have a child in this school, I
have been kept abreast of issues
from a parent who does have a
child enrolled there.

These issues do not warrant dis-
closures in the article. The par-
ents, staff and Catholic leaders at
St. Gabriel’s know what these is-
sues are. My writing this article
however, points to two greater
underlying issues that unfortu-
nately pervades too often economi-
cally depressed and deprived com-
munities. One is the reliance of
others for economic and fiscal sup-
port.

St. Gabriel’s has shown al0-year
history of financial destitution. The
African American community has
allowed the destiny of this school
to be determined through igno-
rance, apathy, and dependency-
monies i.e. grants, federal -pro-
grams, Catholic diocese etc. In uti-
lizing this method of funding, the
school’s parents, over the years,
lost their influence and power of

Greenville African American com- 3

 

Gabriel’s is a Christian school, itis
not Afrocentric-based. The fact
that it has served children of Afri-
can American decentis only due to
the economiccomposition of people
who generally live in that area of
Greenville. I also think that over
the years parents who have had
their children in this school and
the community forgot what the
original purpose of the school was
developed for—as a mission school
for economically-deprived chil-
dren.

. St. Gabriel has contributed sig-
nificantly to the growth and well-
being of children. That should not
be overlooked in all of the issues
the school is currently facing. How-
ever in my assessment of all the
issues and concerns of parents, it
points to an overwhelming need
for a Christian Afrocentric-based,
private, independent school to be
developed in the Greenville com-
munity.

The financial and intellectual
resources are here. Greenville’s
African American community is
representative of greater society.

In order to make real change in
our schools, parents must be di-
rectly involved in the education of
their children. However, in order
to sustain this involvement, there
must be support from the schools,
community, business, and govern-
ments.

In the effort to connect schools
with parents, schools can:

1. Encourage families and teach-

ers to establish learningcompacts.
Compacts would define the goals,
expectations, and shared respon-
sibilities of schools and parents as
equal partners in student success.
The agreements should be simply
written in English or the native
language of the parents where fea-
sible. Compacts, used in conjunc-
tion with other school strategies,
can strengthen the ties between
families, students, and teachers;
and establish a stronger environ-
ment for learning.

2. Train school staff. Good
schools value parental involve-
ment and reach out to parents.
Too often the school contacts par-
ents only when there is a problem.
In developing a partnership, train-
ing will be necessary for princi-
pals, teachers, and other school
staff, as well as parents, to help all
collaborators acquire the skills
needed. Sustaining the partner-
ships is everybody’s job.

3.

in the process. For
example, long-term assignments
would involve parents in the learn-
ing process in such ways as help-
ing families construct family trees,
recounting the family history, and
describing their daily work.

4. Give parents a voice in deci-
lions. Parents should be involved
in decisions regarding their
children’s schooling. Schools can
open options for parents to become
involved individually and collec-
tively in making decisions about
goals and standards for their chil-
dren and their schools.
5. Extend school hours. By stay-
ing openin the afternoon, evening,
and on weekends, schools can al-
low students and families to en-
gage in recreational and learning
activities and provide adult edu-
cation programs and training in
parenting.
6. :
ters. Set aside an area in the school
that invites parents to share their
parenting experiences with other
parents and to work with teachers
and other school staff on school
concerns.
C ities C erade
ents and Schools
Communities can support the
connections between families and
schools in many ways. Communi-
ties can:

1. Contribute to the education of

unteer time, Members of the com-

munity and local businesses can
support family involvement by
broadening the learning environ-
ment. Volunteers can assist in the
schools either for special events or
on a regular basis through tutor-
ing or mentoring. Family and com-
munity involvement should be de-
veloped and sustained in support
of student development through
all grades. Also, by gettinginvolved
~ in a local community board, com-
munity members can have an im-
pact on the local policy agenda.
2. ‘ .

development of children and their
families. Make community re-
sources available to schools and
families. Community organiza-
tions may reach out to families by
providing services such as child
care, after school programs, assis-
tance with homework, parenting
education programs, or youth and
family counseling programs. In-
viting education officials to address
civic groups and congregations on
school policies and positions is
another way to sustain the part-
nership.

3. Support flexible scheduling
.
sina.al ark anslanesiel aaa tie in thas

ing.. Employers
could devise model time release
programs that allow parents the
time to volunteer in their children’s
schools without docking them for
leave time. In addition, special pro-
grams on parenting and helping
children with school work could be
offered during lunchtime semi-
nars. “Bring your child to work
days” can also reinforce what is
taught in the school with real on-
the-job skills.

How the U.S. Department

_of Education Will Help

To begin the process, the U.S.

Department of Education has
launched GOALS 2000 that di-

rectly involves parents in stan- 4

dard-setting and bottom-up re-
‘tion and community services to! |
‘children’s Lb cee
Administration’s for re-

   
   
  

 

authorizing the federal elemen-
tary and secondary education pro-
grams would create compacts in
Title I schools to enable parents
and teachers to discuss common
expectations and mutual respon-
sibilities for their children. Par-
ents in Title I schools will have a
significant role in planning and
implementing school reform and
schools will afford parents oppor-
tunities to participate in parenting
and other training programs.

The U.S. Department of Educa-

tion will move forward with this

a
campaign in several ways. It will:
' Reach out to organizations that
represent the interests of teach-
ers, principals, and parents and
engage them in a national media
campaign to create better relations
between home and school. The
Department is scheduling meet-
ings with the PTA, the teachers
and principals associations, and
the Chamber of Commerce to find
out what they are currently doing
and how these activities can be
coordinated and brought under a

  

 

meetings, print media coverage,
national talk shows, periodic na-
tional surveys, and formal pro-
grams are just a few of the means
to be used to convey the parent
involvement message to the Ameri-
can public.

Connect with other agencies for
the campaign. The Department
will call upon other government
agencies in addressing issues of
family involvement. Forexample,
the Head Start program within
HHS, the concern with youth vio-
lence within the Justice Depart-

ment, the School-to-Work inter-
ests of the Labor Department, can
each be strengthened with closer
collaboration, knowledge, and
strategy-sharing among the orga-
nizations. The opportunity to use
HUD housing projects as places to
offer homework rooms and the
National Park Service to provide
learning experiences for families
in the “great outdoors” can also be
pursued. ;

Make the Department of Educa-

work site. The U.S, Department of
Education, for example, has
started a “Parenting in the Work-
place” program which presents
noon-time parenting seminars and
produces a yearly Parenting Fair.
The agency is also reviewing its

_ personnel policies for changes that

would encourage greater family
participation and make it a model —
for the workplace.

| am actively seeking a seat on the Beaufort County Board of Commissioners. | feel
that the time has come for our citizens to take a good look at the overall conditions of
our county.

Our taxes are running vieneant as we all know. There has been much talk about
taxes and revaluation of our property. | would like for us to seek workable solutions
to either get us out, or relieve us, of this situation.

We should actively seek compatible and environmental-friendly industries for our
area, therefore easing our tax burdens. Our highways and waterways should be
carefully scrutinized for assessibility to industries.

These are some concerns of mine that will affect all of our citizens.

| am running with all citizens throughout the entire county in mind.

Your support in the upcoming election will be greatly appreciated.
