The members of the community attend school meeting with staff and check the achievement and progress of their children at school. The schools encouraged community participation and were sharing their students' progress report with parents. The community members raised no funds for schools, so the researcher suggests that community members support these efforts to encourage school growth, and community members should have a clear time to address the issue with staff.
