School governance councils are involving parents in schools like never before. Just ask Sasha Davis.

“School governance councils give parents a voice,” says Sasha. “You feel empowered and you’re working with parents, teachers, administrators and the community. School governance councils are the perfect example of the village coming together to help students succeed.”

Make sure parental involvement is a part of education reform.
