FIRST-EVER STATE RUBRIC FOR PI
KENTUCKY TO EMPLOY FIRST-EVER RUBRIC TO INCREASE PARENT INVOLVEMENT IN PUBLIC EDUCATION
The Kentucky Parent Advisory Council has issued recommendations and a rubric focused on increasing parental involvement in education. In the report issued by the group, six objectives geared to increase a community's stake in public education, which included relationship building, effective communication, decision making, advocacy, learning opportunities and community partnerships, were outlined. In addition, the rubric allows parents and educators alike to rate the involvement parents and communities have in schools with a focus on the six objectives. The Kentucky Commissioner's Parent Advisory Council (CPAC) has recommended that the Kentucky Department of Education take major steps to implement the objectives defined by the Kentucky Parent Advisory Council, including adopting a "customer satisfaction" training module for school districts and establishing community involvement councils at the school, district and state levels. CPAC'S goal is to make Kentucky the first state to set standards for family and community involvement that are specifically focused on student achievement. The Kentucky Department of Education has already pledged to incorporate the rubric into its standards-based accountability system.
