CTA Parents & Community - A major factor in student success is an involved support system outside of school. When parents are involved in their children’s education, kids do better in school. A concerned community adds even more to the equation.

As a parent, you are the most important influence in your child's success in school and in life. In this role, you have a fresh opportunity every day to get involved with your child.

The Parents' Resource Center provides two types of information: Learn Now-a web portal that provides valuable links to parent-friendly resources on child and adolescent health issues, and Act Now-a guide written by CHHCS to help parents assess health-related services and programs at their child's schools.
