The six types of parent involvement are based on the theoretical model of "overlapping spheres of influence." This model shows that children learn and grow in three interconnected contexts— home, school, and community. Those six types include the following:
1) parenting (combination of information for parents and from parents about children and families);
2) two-way communication between teachers and parents;
3) volunteering (parental assistance to teachers and administrators in supporting the school program and helping with children's schoolwork and activities);
4) learning at home;
5) involvement in decision making;
6) collaborating with the community
