Indicator 18: Number of parent involvement activities per year by school and average number of parents participating

Table 17

 

Chuuk continues to indicated a high number of parent activities with a low participation rate. There may be some misunderstandings in requirements of this indicator. At the Data Management/EIS workshop of May 2007 (mentioned above), participants were trained in the criteria for parental contributions, and were also given written instructions as to what were acceptable activities in this area. Only Yap state didn’t provide any data on the above table.

Yap did not provide data for this indicator.

Accuracy of this data has not been verified. For the future, this indicator should perhaps be refined to enable a more sophisticated analysis of meaningful parental contributions to the school, perhaps defining sub criteria such as fund raising activities, organization activities, helping out in the school, etc.
