  • Volunteering in my child’s classroom or school.
  • Participating, as appropriate, in decisions relating to my children’s education.

  • Serving, to the extent possible on the Schools Community Council, District Policy Advisory Committee, and other school advisory or policy groups.

We, as students, will share the responsibility to improve our academic achievement and achieve the State’s high standards.  Specifically, we will:

  • Do my homework every day and ask for help when I need to.
  • Read at least 20 minutes every day outside of school time.
  • Give to my parents or the adult who is responsible for my welfare all notices and information received by me from my school every day.
