Education and the Family

Abstract

Boards of education Children Education Educational administration Government High schools Neighborhood schools Parents Public schools Traditional schools
Historically, schools have depended on families for children (input) and for general guidance in sociability and educational tasks. Families likewise have depended on schools to help separate the generations, to aid in socialization, and to help educate those in and outside the school system. At present local-state educational relations influence a family's choice of residence, obscure traditional demarcations between the school and the family, compel family attention to pupil conduct in and outside of school, and tax family financial resources heavily. Federal pressures on the family relate to the integration of the races and the gradual establishment of educational national standards. Problems are explored and various new reforms suggested.
