Parent Involvement
Parents are encouraged to take an active role in their child’s educational experience at Winters Mill. Three parents have been serving on the instructional leadership team and have helped develop the instructional programs. Additionally, three parent organizations are needed to support Winters Mill:
1. The PTSA (parent, teacher, student association) supports and promotes the entire school.
2. The athletic boosters work with the total athletic program.
3. The music boosters supports marching band activities and other instrumental and choral groups.

Famous quotes containing the words parent and/or involvement:
“The pressures of being a parent are equal to any pressure on earth. To be a conscious parent, and really look to that little beings mental and physical health, is a responsibility which most of us, including me, avoid most of the time because its too hard.”
—John Lennon (19401980)
“Juggling produces both practical and psychological benefits.... A womans involvement in one role can enhance her functioning in another. Being a wife can make it easier to work outside the home. Being a mother can facilitate the activities and foster the skills of the efficient wife or of the effective worker. And employment outside the home can contribute in substantial, practical ways to how one works within the home, as a spouse and as a parent.”
—Faye J. Crosby (20th century)
