Family Involvement & Support

Strong Community

Our open-door policy that welcomes parents and guardians because we know that family involvement leads to student success. A National PTA study found that "the most accurate predictors of student achievement in school are not family income or social status, but the extent to which the family ... becomes involved in the child's education at school."
