Sheehy, Deborah A. – Journal of Physical Education, Recreation & Dance (JOPERD), 2011
It is no secret that parents can and often do influence events and offerings in schools.

In the schoolhouse, nothing matters more to students' learning than their teachers. But only about one of every four U.S. classrooms has an "excellent teacher"--one who produces enough learning progress to close achievement gaps quickly and help all students leap ahead to higher-order learning.
