Parent Participation

  • PARENT PARTICIPATION IS A TOP PRIORITY!
    Parent participation has been a major priority of the Board of Education. Each school's Single Plan for Student Achievement (SPSA) contains specific parent participation components and activities. Parent participation is encouraged through many formal and informal organizations and activities. The major advisory councils to support parent participation are described below.
