Parental support plays an important part in helping preteens and teens succeed in middle school. But as students grow more independent during these years, it can be hard for parents to know which situations call for involvement and which call for a more behind-the-scenes approach. Here are a few ways to keep your child on track for academic success in middle school.

• Attend Back-to-School Night and Parent-Teacher Conferences

• Visit the School and Its Website

• Support Homework Expectations

• Send Your Child to School Ready to Learn

• Instill Organization Skills

• Teach Study Skills

• Know the Disciplinary and Bullying Policies

• Get Involved

• Take Attendance Seriously

• Make Time to Talk About School
