Abstract
Chapter 1 will focus on the importance of good school-community relations. The involvement of parents in the formal education of their children is good for both the parents, the teachers, the schools, and the community. It will be pointed out in the chapter that a school-community partnership calls for a continuous exchange of information between parents and teachers and the involvement of parents in the affairs of their schools. Some of the advantages of such continuous exchange of information between the home and the school will also be discussed. The advantages to be discussed will include teachers’ acquisition of knowledge about their pupils, knowledge of what parents want for their children, and the role of parents in publicizing the activities of their school more objectively.
