Working in Partnership

Teachers using the HighScope Curriculum work in partnership with parents and other family members to promote children’s learning. They provide information about the curriculum and early learning, invite family members to participate in classroom activities and parent workshops, discuss children’s progress, and share ideas for extending classroom learning in the home. As a result, teachers report that parents have a better understanding of how their children are developing and learning.
