Abstract:
This article examines how early childhood staff in diverse circumstances negotiate relationships with parents. It draws on interviews with staff in two rural and three urban communities in Australia, who were asked about their parent communication practices, their experiences of these practices, and their preferences within these practices. Their responses were analysed in the light of international research showing the importance of creating strong interpretive communities between staff and parents but consistent staff anxiety about their relationships with parents.

Abstract:
The family service work environment has been linked to the parent–worker relationship (relationship) for many years. However, there is still much to understand about how the working environment and these relationships are connected. This paper reports on a small-scale qualitative study exploring the story of eight relationships between parents and family workers in four rurally based family services in New South Wales (NSW), Australia. Hermeneutics provided a way of examining the dynamics of the relationships, as it enabled an in-depth exploration and interpretation of the participants’ perspe

As self-contained programs for children with EBD became well-established, parent/school relationships noticeably improved. Even when relatively new, self-contained programs were perceived by staff to be superior to mainstream programs in resources and

Collaboration between parents and staff in early childcare centers is important because it supports children’s well-being, development, and learning.

Background/Context As accountability pressures have mounted toward ever-higher targets under the No Child Left Behind (NCLB) Act, low-achieving schools have sought new tools for raising achievement. The association between parent involvement and student achievement is well established, though the association is an indirect relationship mediated by other variables.

Abstract:
Few studies have compared the perceptions of principals and superintendents regarding the reasons why principals lose their jobs. Perceptual congruence on factors that contribute to principal termination is necessary to ensure accurate, appropriate, and constructive feedback about ineffective leadership behaviors. This study compared the perceptions of 124 California public school principals with those of 99 California public school district superintendents on 22 reasons why principals lose their jobs and on 9 organizational outcomes related to ineffective leadership.

Abstract:
Background: Family-centered service philosophy (FCS) is an important contextual aspect of many pediatric rehabilitation programs. It recognizes the importance of supporting family relationships and the benefits of active family participation in all aspects of programming. Unfortunately, many professionals often overlook FCS philosophy when designing and implementing evaluations. Given the emphasis that participatory evaluation places on collaboration and the engagement of stakeholders, it appears to be theoretically compatible with FCS philosophy.

Abstract:
Public school districts across the United States have implemented school choice systems that have the potential to improve underserved students' access to educational opportunities. However, research has shown that learning about and applying for schools can be extremely time-consuming and expensive, making it difficult for these systems to create more equitable access to resources in practice. A common factor surfaced in prior work is unequal access to information about the schools and enrollment process. In response, governments and non-profits have invested in providing more information abo
