Parental Involvement 8:110
In order to assure collaborative relationships between students’ families and the District, and to enable parents/guardians to become active partners in their children’s education, the Superintendent shall:
1. Keep parents/guardians thoroughly informed about their child’s school and education.
2. Encourage parents/guardians to be involved in their child’s school and education.
3. Establish effective two-way communication between parents/guardians and the District.
4. Seek input from parents/guardians on significant school-related issues.
5. Inform parents/guardians on how they can assist their children’s learning.
The Superintendent shall periodically report to the Board on the implementation of this policy.
OK? What is the point here? The Board is not required to reply or even be nice to me in matters that don't pertain specifically to my child's education. They don't owe me or you a response to anything.
Do I think they should chime in? Sure. But there's no obligation to do so.
Sounds like semantics he asked if they have to respond It doesn’t say obligated but it does say refer to appropriate Chanel of authority these are public officials with duties and responsibilities how is building a new school to right a previous wrong (which is cited because of white people left and right) not apart of any child’s education in the district I am honestly asking? These articles are questioning the finances of the project which could affect what services maybe removed or added later. I’m confused as to how this isn’t apart of a child’s ‘education’
