Family Engagement:

Are you interested in having access to real-time information that includes your child’s  attendance, grades, and assignments? You can stay connected with your child and keep us with his/her progress during the school year.  All you need to do is contact your child’s Data Manager at the school to verify information and create an account. If you do not have access then reach out today so that you can make sure that your child is having a successful year.

All Title I schools which are our elementary and middle schools will be having an upcoming Title I night. More information will come from the school. Make sure you put it on your calendar to attend the session at your child’s school to be involved and to learn what your child will be learning and to receive resources to help your child to have a successful year.
