    The document presents two models of parental involvement in schools: the "We-Are-Going-To-Do-This-To-You Model" and the "We-Are-Going-To-Do-This-With-You Model". The first model aims to change parents to fit the school's goals, while the second aims to change the school by building community through collaboration between teachers and families. Key differences between the two models include one-way communication from teachers to families in the first, and open discussion between teachers and families in the second, collaborative model. The result is described as a dysfunctional school under the first model versus a functional school under the second, more inclusive model.
