"The purpose of this study was to discover which parent partnership strategies are being practiced in Christian schools whose mission statements identify parent partnership as a priority. Research not only reveals a spiritual decline among teenagers today, but also shows how children generally follow in the spiritual footsteps of their parents. If a Christian school's primary purpose is to cultivate spiritual formation within students, and children generally follow in the spiritual footsteps of their parents, then a parent partnership strategy that resources, challenges, and encourages the spiritual growth of parents may be a viable solution school leaders should use to fulfill the school's mission. While the Christian school community has incorporated partnership language into its mission, a problem exists in knowing what schools are doing to partner with parents. An informed investigation of this problem began with a descriptive study of mission statements gathered from targeted schools to verify the schools' partnership priorities. The study then identified trends and patterns from current partnership practices within Christian schools to help define what Christian schools are doing to partner with parents. The study was designed to establish an overview of parent partnership strategies and build a foundation of research to support future studies."
