"Both parents and communities must be involved in the local schools. Education is too important to leave solely to a group of professional educators."

It is universally acknowledged that the thriving and prosperity of a country depends greatly on the qualities of their people, and people's qualities and abilities are mostly obtained from their education. Therefore it is nothing but tenable to conclude that education is one of the most predominating tasks of a country. Since than, I strongly agree with the notion that, in order to provide the children with ideal education, both parents and communities must be involved in the local schools, for education is too important to leave solely to a group of professional educators.

First and foremost, the duties and effects of the parents in education are indelible and irreplaceable. It is common understanding and widely confirmed that parents are the first teachers of their child. Ever since a baby was born, he or she would see and touch their parents, (We are talking about common sense here, so some exceptions like orphanages are excluded.) and then established his very first impression of the human society and the whole world. Like all the other creatures on the earth, infants tend to follow and imitate the behaviors of their parents due to their nascent conceptions and instinct. At that time, infants deem their parents as protectors as well as tutors, thus would consider every action delivered by parents to be meaningful and correct. For this very reason, every parent should behave themselves strictly, because their child may lack certain standards and values of moral and ethic. Countless examples are that the child of rash and boorish people would grow up to be still impudent and imprudent, while gentle and courteous people would more likely to have child with elegancy. As is known to all that Mr and Mrs Courier are great scientists, and both their son and daughter are Noble Prize winners as well. This example somehow illustrates the effects of the parents. In a word, the roles and positions of parents in children's eyes are unique, thus parents should be fully aware of their speeches and behaviors, and osmosis children with the noble deeds of their own.

Moreover, the communities play equal prominence role in the education of children, too. None of us can deny the fact that the community is constituted of people and every people have to interact with the community to some extent. Since than, the education of communication and cooperation with each other is inevitable and should be started as soon as possible. Concerning the interactions between people, the role of community is indisplaceable. Therefore, every child should be encouraged and required to take part in the social activities and services to practice their communication skills and cooperation spirits. What's more, the term emotional intellect, also known as EQ, is becoming ever more emphasized in the modern society, and it can be practiced and improved with the help of communities.

Still, emphasizing the importance of parents and communities does not indicates the debasing of professional educators. As specially trained, the professional educators have certain merits and characters which no parents and communities can substitute. Under the guidance and custody of vocational teachers, children can acquire necessary knowledge and the more crucial skills and methods of studying and thinking.

In summary, we can not stress too much of the importance of education. As a result, everyone in the society, especially the parents of children, the communities and the professional educators should take responsibility for the nurturing and fostering of every child. Only by occupying our offspring with knowledge and sublime goals can our country and the whole human beings advance even further.
