While all contexts surrounding early childhood have an impact on child development, caregivers (specifically parents)have the closest and most direct influence on children’s development. Parent involvement in education has also been shown to impact academic achievement, and to improve the health, cognitive functioning and development of young children. Several studies have examined the importance of parental involvement in early childhood and have linked family involvement behaviors and academic outcomes. Wong and Hughes (2006) suggested that the parent-school connection was so important that it could help lessen the achievement gap for minority students; alluding to the powerful role that family involvement plays in education.
