The 'Future Education Community Academy' was designed to create a practical platform for communication, where parents from different regions and school levels can gather in one place to share their perspectives on education and exchange experiences regarding their children's education.


This year's academy, held for the fourth time, was attended by a total of 44 parent members from 15 middle and high schools in the Hwado, Sudong, Hopyeong, and Pyeongnae areas, demonstrating the high level of interest among parents in future education.


The event began with an introduction to Namyangju City's educational initiatives, followed by a special lecture on future education titled 'Communication with Your Child to Enhance Self-Management,' and concluded with a discussion session where the mayor and parents shared their thoughts on children's education. The event served as a meaningful opportunity to foster solidarity and participation within the educational community.


During the event, Mayor Joo Gwangdeok emphasized, "A parent's words have the power to move a child's heart," and added, "Warm words and messages of hope can create a butterfly effect that leads children down the path of growth," resonating with those in attendance.


One parent who attended the event commented, "It was very meaningful to realize that parents' experiences and opinions can contribute to the educational field. Through the process of sharing and empathizing with other parents about education, we had a valuable time of learning and growing together."



The city plans to continue actively reflecting the voices of parents and the educational field, and to further expand the culture of educational communities where people learn and grow together in the region.
