PARENT INVOLVEMENT POLICY
The Parent Involvement Policy of No Child Left Behind, Title 1, Section 1118, part (g) requires that "LEA'S and Schools receiving Title 1 Funds shall assist parents and parental organizations by informing them of the existence and purpose of the Kansas Parent Information Resource Center."

While section 1118 is the primary portion of NCLB addressing parent involvement, you should note that Section 1114 (Schoolwide Programs). Section 1115 (Targeted Assistance Schools) and Section 1116 (School Improvement) have additional parent involvement provisions.
