Parenting Program

The Jackson Public Schools Parenting Program provides parents with educational resource materials, equipment, and information to become more effective in working with their children on specific skills at home. The District's Parent and Family Engagement Center is housed in the 6th Grade Building of Chastain Middle School, located at 4650 Manhattan Road. Services are provided to all families within the District and at participating non-public Title I schools. The Parent and Family Engagement Center is open year round.

The program's purpose is to:

• Enable parents to enhance the learning experience of their children.
• Provide resources designed to support the social, emotional, and academic needs of the family.
• Improve student achievement by involving parents in the education of their children.
