Combatting Parent Apathy: Changing “Your Job” to “Our Job”

Our proposal is to reduce parent apathy which is a hindrance to early education, in particular when parents believe education starts in Kindergarten. The goal is to partner with parents through the use of a program we will call, “I am Eastern Kentucky.” Through this program, we will explore the rich culture of Eastern Kentucky and engage students and parents through collaborative effort.
