Welcome Parents, Guardians and
Families
We welcome our students' parents, families and guardians to join us in preparing today's students to take charge of America's
future.
We recognize that raising children is a team effort, and that
students benefit from an educational team involving our schools and you.
Research
shows that the more parents get involved in their child's education, the
higher level of success that student can achieve. Parent engagement is
potent as rocket fuel, and with it, there's no telling how high your
child can soar.
Another great resource is the district's Parent Outreach and Engagement Department offers programs and resources in the most effective ways to help your child academically.
Our schools
welcome families, guardians and community members in hundreds of ways
to pitch in, often with seemingly small tasks that can have far-reaching
results. Students benefit when professionals come speak at career
fairs, and offer them challenging internships. You make an impact by
joining any one of the district's many advisory committees and councils,
and help shape policy on everything from legislation to athletics.
Our
district is committed to involving student families and the community,
and fulfilling the parent involvement obligations under federal and
state law. We've made it official policy,
to establish effective partnerships at every level in the educational
process -- from our classrooms, to company boardrooms, to family living
rooms.
