| For some reason, many parents do not feel they are responsible for their teenager's actions. They feel their teens are 'old enough' to 'know better' and therefore are totally responsible for themselves. That simply is not true. If there is any confusion about this - if your teen has tried to erase this line for you - listen to this very simple statement: You not only have the right to check up on your teen and see that they are behaving appropriately, you have the responsibility legally to do so. |
GA PARENTAL INFORMATION AND RESOURCE CENTER
Mission
The objective of the GA Parental Information
and Resource Center (GA PIRC) is to strengthen partnerships among
parents, teachers, principals, administrators, and other personnel in
meeting the educational needs of children.
Overview
The GA PIRC is a federally funded initiative
of Communities in Schools of Georgia. The funding is provided by
the U.S. Department of Education Office of Innovation and Improvement.

Parents are provided with technical assistance in communicating
effectively with teachers, principals, counselors, administrators and
other school personnel.
