Parents and faculty work together to emphasize the value of education and to monitor the academic performance of students. We believe that every child can learn and that every child must experience success each day. We ask that you send your child to school ready to learn and that you develop a partnership with the teachers to support each other in your respective roles. Parents love their children and want the best possible education for them. Parents will participate in ways they can, in light of their cultural, family and personal priorities.
Parents participate when they feel accepted, cared about, and respected by school personnel.
Students benefit from their parents' active involvement in schooling. A parent-involvement program is only as successful as the school leadership and staff believe it can be. We, the Sidway staff, hold these assumptions as truth and look forward to working with you this year.
