Parents and family are a child’s first teachers in life and have valuable insights into their child's needs, strengths, and interests. Collaborating with caregivers and educators is vital in guiding each child toward success. The Family Guide for Student Success outlines what your child should learn by grade level. You can encourage your child’s academic growth by reinforcing classroom activities at home. The achievement of the expectations will help your child meet the assessment standards established by our state. Only through your support and active participation in your child’s education can we form a partnership for the success of all the children in Alabama.
