For SCOPE Parents/Guardians:

Parents are encouraged to share their talents with our school family.  We ask that you make us aware If you have an expertise or specific knowledge that would contribute to  our learners,(including our adult learners).  We always look for partnerships to advance understanding in science, technology, engineering, art, and math.  We believe that positive parent involvement in education supports positive student academic achievement, aspirations, and attitudes.

Our educational team views their role as an important one in helping parents educate children through guiding parental involvement. Parents are a true extension of the teachers’ curriculum at school and by the integrated home activities proposed. It will be our role to enable parents to do their job well by promoting shared responsibility and direction between our professionals and parents.

We do not have holiday room parties, but there are other ways that parents and grandparents can serve as volunteers or do work at home to support school and child initiatives.  We often need arrival and dismissal assistance, recess help, office help, academic tutoring, or special event assistance. Parents who have an interest in providing academic support to children will be trained by the educational team in place with developed materials and guidelines, and will be asked to have an updated background check available in order to work independently with learners.

Our teachers actively endorse a home to school partnership and believe your participation matters.  Please be assured that any and all of your concerns will be respected and recognized for the important role you play in your child’s development. Contact your child’s teacher or any staff member involved with your child’s program to share your concern.  We ask that you give your child's teacher an opportunity to understand your concerns or suggestions prior to taking your concerns to administration.  If you do not feel that your concerns were heard or handled, then please contact an administrator. 

SCOPE Academy offers two scheduled parent conference opportunities, but families are invited to contact their child’s classroom teacher to arrange additional times to meet if desired.
