Parent Tools & Products

Students really need to have a formal "prosperity conversation" with their parents about education goals. That way the parents can set the expectation and encourage their children to go to college, and the student can discuss how their parents can help. A DVD taken home that leads the parent and child through this conversation on education will help involve the 90% of parents that never come to school functions. All this can take place in the privacy of their own homes with a DVD.
