Dr. Kevin L. Brown, a top Sacramento City Unified School District (SCUSD) Administrator, has authored a new book to help African American parents support the education of their children. The African American Parent Guide To Public School Success – The Common Sense Approach To Helping Your Child, provides advice and practical tools to encourage academic success and prevent suspensions and expulsions. Dr. Brown, a veteran educator whose career spans over 18 years, and amongst several states throughout the nation, said that he developed the guide in response to the high rate of suspensions and expulsions of African American students, and their declining academic performance in California schools. “Because I love children, and believe that every child can succeed, I felt led to develop a holistic tool that would tie teacher, parent and child together.”
The book is described as “timely and invaluable for the success of our children’s education and their parents’ relationship to their education,” by Mrs. Tracee Lewis, a Sacramento City Unified School District Healthy Start Specialist. The book also gives step-by-step instructions on how to connect with your child’s teacher, advice to prevent your child from being suspended from school, and what to do should your child be suspended.
“Many parents are looking for ways to help their children because they themselves have not had role models, and they are afraid to ask for help. The African American Parent Guide gives parents simple, user friendly steps on how to be good parents and role models,” says Mrs. Harriet Young, Principal of Bear Flag Elementary School in the Sacramento City Unified School District. “Dr. Kevin L. Brown offers a realistic, perceptive and direct path for fulfillment in education.”
Brown, who has worked for the SCUSD since 1998, has two other books being released this spring, The African American Student Guide To Public School Success and The African American Guide To College and University Admission.
