PARTNERING WITH PARENTS & FAMILIES
We value and believe in working alongside our families in supporting our students in reaching their highest potential. We hope to strengthen these learning partnerships through open communication, collaborative projects and collective decision making.
Become a Parent Volunteer
The staff at the Downtown Community of Schools invites our parents and community members to become volunteers at our center or at their child's school. The children of parents who volunteer at their schools, often do better both academically and socially. Your involvement also allows you to give feedback to the school that helps it make improvements for all the children. If you are interested in becoming a parent volunteer, please click here .
