New online education toolkit available to Idaho parents

Idaho parents now have a dedicated space to explore resources and connect with their child’s school and the wider educational community with a new Parent Resource Toolkit launched Friday by Superintendent of Public Instruction Sherri Ybarra.

Idaho parents and caregivers can browse a variety of materials for every stage of their child’s educational journey, including resources on early learning programs, science and math activities and supports for students with disabilities. Parents with children nearing the end of their K-12 career can find information on dual credit programs, scholarships and financial aid, Career Technical Education programs and a dedicated college savings program for Idaho families. The site also features a space for parents who would like to get involved with their local school, complete with a checklist of ways to communicate, volunteer and advocate for their students, schools and communities. The website will be updated as additional resources become available.

Parents with suggestions on items they would like to see on the site are encouraged to email infosuperintendent@sde.idaho.gov. Check out the site here.
