When you can't volunteer, perhaps Grandpa can:
Working parents don't always have the time during the day to volunteer at school. But students and the school benefit from volunteer efforts by any adult family members. Many schools welcome grandparents as volunteers. If your child doesn't have a grandparent available, perhaps his aunts, uncles or godparents could get involved. Ask your child's teacher how these volunteers can help.

Encourage the right approach to volunteering: Your teen will get more out of volunteering if she remembers to be flexible, responsible and persistent. Every experience can teach her something, but it may take a few tries before she finds a perfect fit. Remind your teen that a volunteer job is a real job; she needs to show up when she says she will. And she should keep in mind that lower-level positions can lead to great things down the road.

Add a new dimension to learning:
Even the most studious teens get bored with schoolwork sometimes. That's when you can add a little spice to learning. If your teen is reading a novel or a play, look for a movie version or a live performance you can watch together. Cook food together from the era or region he's studying in history. To bring science home, ask your teen's teacher for experiments you can do that illustrate what's going on in class.

Provide an introduction to social skills:
Your child will feel more confident in social situations at school if she knows how to introduce herself and others. Help her practice by having family members sit in a circle. Each person should introduce himself (Hi, I'm Scott). Then have family members introduce the person to their left and say something about that person (This is my brother, Eric. He likes to play soccer and wear high-top sneakers.).

Conversations can help prevent violence at school:
Schools go to great lengths to keep kids safe. Families also have an important role to play. Talking to your child about safety issues on a regular basis is essential. Start a dialogue by asking questions such as, "What scares or frightens you?" "What makes you feel safe?" "What makes you angry?" "What ways can you think of to solve a problem without hurting someone?" and "How would you promote peace at school?"

Study location can help information stick:
Research suggests that the place your teen studies can affect her memory of the information. Students make connections between their study locations and the material. Suggest that your teen try studying different subjects in different places: English in the kitchen, math at the library, etc. Then, when she takes an English test, she can think of studying in the kitchen and remember what she read.
