At Playhouse Academy, we believe that parents are a child’s first and most important teachers. The involvement of parents in a child’s education is not only about supporting school activities, but also about nurturing their emotional, social, physical, and cognitive development.
Why Is Parental Engagement So Important?
Stronger Learning Outcomes
Research from Harvard University’s Center on the Developing Child shows that children thrive when families are actively involved. They develop stronger language, problem-solving, and early literacy skills.
Emotional Security
When children see their parents engaging with their school life, they feel more secure, valued, and confident. This emotional foundation helps them become more resilient and curious learners.
Healthy Social Development
Parents who model teamwork, communication, and community spirit show children the importance of relationships and social responsibility.
Balanced Growth
Engagement isn’t only about academics—it also supports children’s health, well-being, creativity, and character development.
How Playhouse Academy Engages Parents
We see education as a partnership between school and home. At Playhouse Academy, parents are invited to take an active role through our Parent Support Group (PSG). Together, parents and teachers collaborate on:
Parenting seminars and educational workshops
Health and wellness sessions
Special interest classes such as cooking and creative activities
Community programs that strengthen the school-family bond
