WHAT IS PARENT & FAMILY ENGAGEMENT?
Parent & Family Engagement means the participation of parents in regular, two-way, and meaningful communication involving student academic learning and other school activities. The engagement includes ensuring that parents play an integral role in assisting their child's learning; that parents are encouraged to be actively involved in their child's education at school; that parents are full partners in their child's education and are included, as appropriate, in decision making and on advisory committees to assist in the education of their child.
The Department of Student Discipline, Prevention and Intervention provides support, oversight, and coordination for planning, implementing and assessing programs and practices that promote positive student behavior, safe, and orderly environments in which teaching and learning are a priority. The Department develops, coordinates, and implements the Student Codes of Conduct which promote appropriate student behavior, positive climate and a culture of respect and dignity by supporting ALL students as they strive to become productive, responsible citizens in a global society. The Department implements effective scientific and evidence-based interventions and strategies for students; and coordinates behavioral supports to enhance school climate and maximize student achievement.
