Title I School-Parent Compact 

2024-2025

Under No Child Left Behind, each Title I school jointly develops with parents a school-parent compact that outlines how parents, the entire school staff, and students will share the responsibility for improved student academic achievement and the way in which the school and parents will build and develop a partnership to help children achieve the State’s high standards.  

As a school, we will:

  • Provide a high-quality effective learning environment that is safe and that enables the student to meet the State’s student academic achievement standards

  • Provide ongoing two-way communication between teachers and parents through parent-teacher-student conferences and frequent reports to parents

  • Provide reasonable access to staff through an “open door” policy

  • Provide opportunities for parents to volunteer and participate in their child’s class and observe classroom activities

  • Provide a mutually respectful relationship between all parties (students, parents, teachers, and volunteers)

As a parent, I will:

  • Support my child’s learning by ensuring that he/she has proper rest and nutrition and attends school on time and on a regular basis

  • Support my child’s learning by reading with him/her 

  • Help set a positive tone for learning with my child

  • Strive to make positive use of my time with my child (“quality” one on one time)

  • Participate in decisions relating to the education of my child through a mutually respectful relationship with school staff

  • Provide a mutually respectful relationship between all parties (students, parents, teachers, and volunteers)

  • Provide “protected” time for homework completion (Make sure that recreational activities don’t interfere with school work.)

  • Support my child’s class/school (i.e. helping in class/school, volunteering in my child’s classroom/school, communicating with my child’s teachers, attending school events when possible, etc.)

As a student, I will:

  • Proudly follow the behavioral expectations taught at our school.

  • Ask questions when I am not sure about a lesson or an assignment

  • Make good choices like paying attention in class, staying on task, doing my best, and working hard at my schoolwork

  • Be the very best that I can be each and every day
