Parent Involvement
-
There are various ways in which parents can become involved and informed in the district. This page outlines ways in which we support parent involvement. Please review our school calendar or relevant sections of our district website to learn more about the date and time of these opportunities.
Superintendent Coffee Chat
The district Superintendent offers opportunities for "coffee chats" over the course of the school year. These are virtual meetings hosted by the Superintendent where parents and community members can come and discuss certain topics. These meetings are very informal and parents are welcome to bring their cup of coffee during these talks. Generally, a topic is selected before each meeting and conversation revolves around that specific topic. However, the Superintendent leaves opportunity for conversation at large during the end of each meeting. Guest speakers may also be part of the coffee chats.Parent Academy
Parent Academies are learning experiences for parents. These are similar to the professional development opportunities we offer for school district staff. These academies are held in-person. Topics for these learning opportunities have ranged from viewing Screenagers, understanding vaping, and learning more about our mental health curriculum. There is often opportunity for hands-on, experiential learning during these sessions.Technology Committee Meetings
