The School/Parent Compact

We know that learning can take place only when there is a combination of effort, interest, and motivation.  Because we are all committed to this student's progress in the TITLE I program, we are going to do our best to promote achievement.  This agreement is a promise to work together.  We believe that this agreement can be fulfilled by our team effort.  Together we can improve teaching and learning.

2. Enable participating students to meet performance standards.
3. Support a partnership among school, parents, and the community to improve student performance.
4. Provide training to parents to work with their children at home to attain performance standards.
5. Give feedback to the students about their progress each week.

As a Parent, I agree to:

1.  Be sure my child attends school daily and on time.
2. Meet with teachers at least twice this year about my child's conduct and performance at school.
3. Attend and participate in at least four Parent Meetings and/or school activities this year.
4. Provide a quiet place for my child to read, study, or write, as well as the pencils and paper needed.
5. Check my child's homework.

As a Student, I agree to:

1.  Work as hard as I can on and accept responsibility for my school assignments.
2. Attend school every day unless I am sick.
