Parent and Family Engagement
Parent and family engagement is an important component of a student’s success in school. The District encourages parents and families to become involved in their child’s education to ensure the child’s academic success. The District will:
(1) Involve parents and families in the development of the Title I plan, the process for school review of the plan and the process for improvement;
(2) To the extent feasible, coordinate and integrate parent and family engagement strategies under Title I with parent and family engagement strategies outlined in other relevant Federal, State, and local laws and programs;
(3) Conduct with the involvement of parents and family members, an annual evaluation of the content and effectiveness of the parent and family engagement policy in improving the academic quality of the school served including identifying barriers to greater participation by parents in Title I activities (with particular attention to low-income parents, Limited English Proficient (LEP) parents, parents of any racial or ethnic minority, parents with disabilities and parents with limited literacy);
(4) Use the findings of the annual evaluation to design strategies for more effective parent and family involvement and to revise, as necessary, the parent and family involvement policies; and;
(5) Provide the coordination, technical assistance and other support necessary to assist and build the capacity of all participating schools in planning and implementing effective parent and family involvement activities to improve student academic achievement and school performance;
The superintendent/designee is responsible for notifying parents and families of this regulation annually or within a reasonable time after it has been amended during the school year.
