Abstract	Drawing on current research and practice, this monograph is designed to help school boards deal with the important question of parent involvement. The first of five chapters examines the benefits of parent involvement in education. Next, the current demographic and societal trends that make involving parents more difficult than previously are explored. Then, barriers to parent involvement are discussed, including educational practices that may discourage effective involvement. Six successful parent involvement programs around the country are then profiled. Finally, the policy implications for local school boards are discussed. Appended are (1) a list of resources for school board members; (2) a sample policy checklist; and (3) descriptions of sample policies. (SI)
