Abstract	Music education doesn't end in the classroom; for many teachers, it's crucial to engage on the home front as well. Parental involvement can have an enormous impact on a music program. Mothers and fathers--as well as other family members--can act as strong advocates, effective fundraisers, sources of invaluable help for performances, and enthusiastic moral support for both the teacher and his/her students. That's why it's best to foster positive relationships with students' families as early and often as possible. What are the most effective ways of fostering those relationships? This article offers selected comments from three teachers about their experiences with parents. They discuss parental interest, the importance of communication, and success stories. (ERIC).
