School Made Simple: Helping Parents Help Their Kids

Avatar: Community Mediation Services Community Mediation Services 11/03/2025 17:08
Idea Submission for The People's Money:
A program for parents with children attending school to better understand the education system in the U.S. and what their kids go through at school. This can also help them understand how they can help their kids prepare better for school.
What is the problem your idea aims to address?
A lot of immigrant parents do not know the system of education in America and can't help their kids out. A lot of kids have to figure out how to do a lot of things for school by themselves, without their parent's support.

Youth (under 24)
Limited English Speakers
