Family Engagement

The School District of Jefferson is committed to including parents in the ACP process. Parents serve as vital role in the ACP process and help to shape the vision of student’s plan. Below is a summary of the ways in which parents are included in the ACP process:

• Parents are annually notified of District’s education for employment options.

• School counseling staff meets with students and their parents for 8th and 11th grade Planning Conferences, and students only for 9th grade. During these meetings, parents are invited to share their thoughts and ideas as the student is provided support in developing a meaningful plan.

• Parents have access to the School Counseling and ACP websites, which serve as good sources of information regarding ACP and the Counseling programming. A variety of resources are provided to allow parents the ability to actively engage in the ACP process.

• ACP updates and reminders will be provided through emails and newsletter articles.
