Despite the high expectations of Hispanic parents, the challenging, confusing, and occasionally unfriendly environment in education systems can be overwhelming for non-English-speaking families. The collaboration of community, business, and educational partners in Orange County (California) is helping Hispanic, Korean, and Vietnamese parents navigate the educational system and bridge systemic gaps in achieving education goals. The "Ten Educational Commandments for Parents" improve academic results by engaging parents in their child's successful academic development.
