“PARENTS ARE PARTNERS”

 

“When parents actively participate in their children’s education, studies have shown that their children do better.  Neither schools nor parents alone can ensure the educational success of the child.  It takes working together toward this common goal.  In a society comprised of diverse family structures, and with so many demands placed on them, school needs become even more sensitive to family needs.  Steps should be taken to ensure that parents, in cooperation with their children’s school, have an opportunity to share in their children’s educational experience.  Toward that end:  The next few pages briefly outline how parents, the entire school staff and students will share the responsibility for improved school achievement.

    SCHOOL COMPACT

 

The staff and parents of Public School 100 are committed to working cooperatively to provide students with the best education.  Together, they recognize the need for family and school to work jointly and support each other’s efforts.  To this end,

 

  P. S. 100 AGREES:

•  to provide supervision for your children from 8:00 A.M. on, unless they are participating in our breakfast program.

 •  to provide annual meetings for parents to inform them of the programs at P. S. 100 and their right to be involved.  A flexible number of meetings at  various times will be arranged to take into account parent needs.

 •  to actively involve parents in planning, reviewing and improving the  programs and parental involvement policies at P. S. 100.

 •  to provide parents with timely information about all programs.

 •  to provide performance profiles and individual student assessment results  for each child and other pertinent individual and school district education information.

 •  to provide high quality curriculum and instruction.

            - parent teacher conferences

            - frequent reports to parents on their children’s progress

            - reasonable access to staff

            - participation in and/or observation of their child’s class

•  to provide opportunities for parents to participate in school-wide activities.

•  to assure that parents may participate in professional development activities  if the school determines that it is appropriate, i.e. workshops on  reading/math strategies, behavior modification programs, etc.
