FAMILY PARTICIPATION

Family involvement is a very important component of your child’s education. We encourage each adult family member to participate in this program as much as his/her schedule allows. Each month, we offer activities for both the parent and their child, or just for parents. The Family events are designed to involve parents as collaborators in their child’s educational journey.
