I got involved in the AAPA to support Academy – and my daughter. Parent participation, whether for five minutes or five months, is so much more than the task being tackled in that moment. Every time we raise a hand to offer help, we’re making a difference, moving things forward, supporting the teachers or enhancing programs for the students. And ultimately, we’re also setting an example for our children. Hopefully, when they’re asked to volunteer one day, they’ll quickly say “yes” too.
