Our School will provide instruction to parents on how to incorporate learning activities into the home environment. These materials are available in the library. PD sessions will be offered to faculty, staff and parents to facilitate and encourage effective communication. The school handbook will offer and instruct guidelines on how parents will resolve parental concerns and district policy will reflect this expectation as well. Each student will have a CAP advisor.
