The Detroit Public Schools is partnering with Wayne State University, the city's public library and Black Family Development to offer parenting courses for mothers, fathers and guardians in the district.
The Parent University courses begin Monday and are part of a district community engagement program geared toward increasing parental involvement in their children's education.
The free classes are being offered through Jan. 23. Some are designed to help parents identify their child's learning style, help manage teen stress and improve basic computer skills. They are two hours long.
Emergency manager Jack Martin says in a release that "having actively engaged parents is a critical component to ensuring" student academic success.
