November 8th is National Parents As Teachers Day

National Parents as Teachers Day is observed annually on November 8. On this day Parents as Teachers Organization offers educational services to parents across the country.  These affiliates give all parents of young children support and it also gives information so all children will learn, grow and develop to realize their full potential.

The concept for Parents as Teachers was developed in the 1970′s when Missouri educators noted that children were beginning kindergarten with varying levels of school readiness.  Research showed that greater parent involvement is a critical link in the child’s development of learning skills, including reading and writing.
