We then become teachers to help others learn. We give of our time and talents to support our schools and our students. We work together with other parents, teachers, and administrators to gather information and make the decisions that will benefit our students the most. The common thread throughout this entire process is open and clear communication among the people involved. As a community we all work together for the success of our students.
Parent involvement is the key ingredient to student success and community support.
