Occupy Schools™ Pledge

I, _____________________________, commit to making a difference in the academic outcomes of all children by first dedicating my efforts to the academic success of my own child.  I, therefore pledge to:

• Practice healthy living habits by ensuring that my child has nutritious meals, adequate rest and exercise.
• Restrict the amount of time my child spends watching television, playing video games, using the computer and phone for non-educational purposes.
• Create an environment in my home that promotes learning.
• Maintain regular, positive communication with my child’s teachers.
• Volunteer at my child’s school and participate in school functions.
• Ensure that my child has necessary school supplies and organizational tools.
• Monitor homework daily and assist when needed.
• Provide stability in my home with routines and practices that support healthy academic, social, and emotional development for my children. 
• Encourage my child’s spirit by celebrating his or her strengths and providing support in areas of challenge.

I will do these things and support Mocha Moms' efforts to educate parents throughout my community to do the same.
