Parent Engagement
Speaking out for quality public schools is more complicated than ever before. Parents want to know about education standards, school accountability, school boards and testing.
PEP is a customized multi-day education opportunity that prepares parents to be knowledgeable education leaders. This year we are innovating with a distance learning program.
MIDDLE SCHOOL TOURS
Working together with schools, our tours are designed to help families with children in 5th and 6th grade explore and learn about the public school options in their community.
Families hear about the school’s unique vision, the various programs and activities that may be offered, see, and sometimes hear examples of student’s work, meet and talk to staff, and visit the campus, classrooms, and facilities
