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.

Shadows like winds
Go back to a parent before thought, before speech,
At the head of the past.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
“The mother whose self-image is dependent on her children places on those children the responsibility for her own identity, and her involvement in the details of their lives can put great pressure on the children. A child suffers when everything he or she does is extremely important to a parent; this kind of over-involvement can turn even a small problem into a crisis.”
—Grace Baruch (20th century)
