Policy Involvement

Describe your plan to involve parents in the development of this policy and how you intend to document their participation and feedback.
  • Parent Advisory Council meetings are held quarterly to get feedback and suggestions from families for school-provided collaborative events.
  • When events are held, families are asked to sign in to document their attendance at these events.
  • Feedback is requested from parents via surveys at least twice a year. At the beginning of the year, families are asked to complete a survey regarding our Parent and Family Engagement Policy. In the spring, we request information on various aspects of our Title I school status.

Shared Responsibility for High Student Academic Achievement

Describe your plan to develop your school compact and gain meaningful collaboration with families.

Our School-Parent Compact details the shared responsibilities among school staff and families to work collaboratively to ensure success for all students. This compact is reviewed and updated on a yearly basis through our Parent Advisory Council meetings and survey data collected from families in the spring.
