School-Parent Compact

School-Parent Compact
Givens, Aikin, Justiss, Crockett, Paris Jr. High

These schools and the parents of the students participating in activities, services, and programs funded by Title I, Part A of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) (participating children), agree that this compact outlines how the parents, the entire school staff, and the students will share the responsibility for improved student academic achievement and the means by which the school and parents will build and develop a partnership that will help children achieve the State’s high standards.

This school-parent compact is in effect during school year 2023-2024.

 

REQUIRED SCHOOL-PARENT COMPACT PROVISIONS

School Responsibilities

The school will:

  • Provide high-quality curriculum and instruction in a supportive and effective learning environment that enables the participating children to meet the State’s student academic achievement standards.
  • Hold parent-teacher conferences (at least annually in elementary schools) during which this compact will be discussed as it relates to the individual child’s achievement.
  • Provide parents with frequent reports on their children’s progress.
  • Provide parents reasonable access to staff.
  • Provide parents opportunities to volunteer and participate in their child’s class, and to observe classroom activities.

 

Parent/Caregiver Responsibilities

We, as parents/caregivers, will support our children’s learning in the following ways:

  • Monitor attendance.
  • Make sure that homework is completed.
  • Volunteer in my child’s classroom.
  • Participate, as appropriate, in decisions relating to my children’s education by attending parent conferences.
  • Promote positive use of my child’s extracurricular time.
  • Stay informed about my child’s education and communicating with the school by promptly reading all notices from the school or the school district either received by my child or by mail and responding, as appropriate.
  • Serve, to the extent possible, on policy advisory groups, such as being the Title I, Part A parent representative on the school’s School Effectiveness Team (SET), the Parent Advisory Committee, the District Wide Academic Council (DWAC), or other school advisory or policy groups.

Quick Tip Information

Quick Tip is a support system that allows students to communicate with school administrators. While the district already has many programs to help students deal with challenges such as bullying behaviors, stress, peer pressure, and family problems, Quick Tip helps break the code of silence often experienced by students because it allows them to report concerns to administrators anonymously.
