Parent Involvement

Read the Proposed Parent Involvement Policy - Oct. 3, 2003

Q: What are the law's implications for parent involvement?

Districts must develop jointly with parents a written parent involvement policy. In addition:

  • Each Title I school must have at least one annual meeting with parents to explain the Title I program and their right to be involved.
  • Schools, with the involvement of parents, must:
    • Set out the respective responsibilities of the school staff, parents and students in raising student achievement.
    • Explain how an effective home-school partnership will be developed.
    • Provide materials to parents in an understandable format.
