Based on the analysis of the parent involvement data, identify and define an area in need of improvement.

Parents have suggested that we have family nights at the beginnnig of the week and keep them on the same day of the week throughout the year for consistency.

Parents have also requested that there is a student activity available when there are parent trainings and we have made interactive activities available for students during parent trainings to attract more parents.

Our goal is to increase parent involvement in the title I family nights by 10%. On average we had 80-85 families attend each family night last year.
