This article explores the influence of parental models on thedynamics of educational partnerships, emphasizing arelational perspective. Educational partnerships—definedas the collaborative relationships between families andschools—are essential for creating a cohesive supportsystem around the student. However, such partnerships arenot merely procedural; they are relational in nature,deeply influenced by the emotional, communicational, andbehavioral models that parents display both at home and ininteractions with the school. Using a blend of theoreticalreferences and qualitative insights from eight interviewedteachers, this paper identifies patterns in how parents’attitudes, consistency, and openness affect the climate ofcollaboration with educational institutions. Additionally,the article incorporates personal reflections drawn frompractical educational contexts. Findings suggest thatsuccessful partnerships emerge when parents act aspositive role models, communicate respectfully, and showtrust in educators. These dynamics not only support studentdevelopment but also foster a school culture built oncooperation, empathy, and shared goals

The amalgam of contemporary educational challenges,combined with the specificity of today's learners, requiresconstant adaptation to innovative methods to meet their needs.Today's generation, often referred to as "digital natives,"requires personalized learning, based on a variety of modernmethods that stimulate their curiosity, develop their ability toadapt quickly and, last, but not least, keep them motivated tolearn. With traditional methods becoming less and lessappealing to these learners, the future of education needs to bereconsidered by integrating interactive approaches andinnovative technologies.

ART AS EXPRESION OF FEELINGS FOR CHILDREN: 10.24250/jpe/1/2025/CVC/
Art, as a sensory expression os sometimes characterized as a therapeutic medium through which children articulate theiremotions. A prevalent notion in certain educational institutionsis that the sole justification for creating art is for pupils toexpress feelings, rather than as an integral academic process.Art is perceived as a cathartic process through which emotionsdisclose their source. Traditionally, mathematics and literatureare conducted in the morning and hold significant importance inthe school curriculum. It is unsurprising that art is perceived asan emotional outlet, particularly when children exhibitdiminished cognitive concentration. The arts, characterized byan ambiance of joy and emotional expression, are a compellingcandidate for therapeutic intervention. We must acknowledgethat this is merely a supplementary role; nonetheless, if it servessolely for emotional release, its significance aligns more closelywith psychiatry than with expressive art
