Family involvement is a cornerstone of student success, and at Sandoval Academy of Bilingual Education (SABE), we believe in the power of a strong partnership between home and school. Our monthly family engagement nights, known as SOMOS SABE, are a testament to our commitment to fostering meaningful connections between families and our school community.
The Importance of Family Involvement
Research consistently shows that parental involvement in a child’s education is positively associated with improved academic performance. When families engage actively in their child’s learning process, students benefit from enhanced support, encouragement, and resources, all of which contribute to their overall success.
SOMOS SABE: Building Connections
At SABE, we host monthly SOMOS SABE events designed to bring families closer to the educational experience. These evenings provide a valuable opportunity for parents and guardians to:
- Interact with Teachers and Staff: Families can have face-to-face conversations with teachers, school support staff, and administrators. This direct communication helps parents stay informed about their child’s progress and the school’s educational approach.
- Explore the Classroom Environment: Parents get a firsthand look at what their children are learning in the classroom. This insight allows families to better understand the curriculum and how they can support their child’s learning at home.
- Participate in School Activities: SOMOS SABE nights often include interactive activities and workshops that engage both parents and students. These activities are designed to strengthen the home-school connection and provide practical strategies for supporting student success.
Enhancing Student Success Through Collaboration
The benefits of family involvement extend beyond just academic performance. When families are actively engaged, students experience:
- Increased Motivation: Knowing that their parents are involved and interested in their education can boost a student’s motivation and enthusiasm for learning.
- Better Communication Skills: Regular interactions between families and educators enhance communication skills and ensure that any challenges are addressed promptly.
- Stronger Academic Outcomes: Studies show that students whose families are engaged in their education tend to have higher grades, better attendance, and improved behavior.
How You Can Get Involved
We encourage all SABE families to take advantage of our SOMOS SABE events and become actively involved in their child’s education. Here’s how you can participate:
- Attend SOMOS SABE Nights: Mark your calendar for our monthly engagement nights and make it a priority to attend. Your presence and participation make a difference.
- Stay Informed: Keep up with school updates, curriculum changes, and upcoming events. Being informed helps you support your child’s learning journey effectively.
- Communicate with Teachers: Don’t hesitate to reach out to your child’s teachers with questions or concerns. Building a strong relationship with educators is key to supporting your child’s academic growth.
