Parental Involvement

Parents as Partners:
Our school has a very supportive and strong PTA, ELAC, and SSC parent groups. These groups support fundraising, family events, school academic progress, student discipline, and school goals. Our PTA meets the second Monday of the month at 3 p.m. in our Multipurpose Room. Our ELAC group meets every last Thursday of the month at 8:15 a.m. The focus of our English Language Learner Advisory Council is support for our English Language Learners in the areas of academic progress and English Language Development. Our SSC group meets every last Wednesday of the month at 3:00 p.m. The School Site Council's focus is the academic progress of all students, the writing and implementation of the school plan, and approval of the school budgets. Child care is available at all meetings.

Volunteers:
Parents are invited and encouraged to volunteer in the classroom and for school events. Room mothers are expected to be active participants in our PTA, and the PTA will continue to encourage parents to volunteer their assistance in the child's classroom. Parent support is important to the success of all school events, and parents will be asked to donate time and ideas to promote fundraisers that provide field trips, school equipment, and 5th Grade Science Camp.
