• The Family in Today's Changing World
     
    In this ever-evolving world, it can be difficult for families to understand what their role is in ensuring a student's success. Every family wants the best for younger generations because it is in children that we often invest our time, effort, and hopes. One thing is for sure, students need family support and often turn to family members first when making decisions regarding their future. No one has all the answers when it comes to what families can to do ensure a student's success, but there is support through numerous resources and guides as well as campus and district staff, and regional specialists.
