Welcome to The Parent Academy

  • The Parent Academy is here for you!

    Our goal is to support families by providing information and resources. We believe partnership between the school, family, and our local community is the way to help every child succeed.  

    How we connect: 

    • Live Webinars - Educators and community experts share information. Q & A at the end of each presentation.
    • Pre-Recorded Videos - Informational videos shared by district staff or community leaders
    • In-Person Meetings - Scheduled Parent Academy meetings at schools or other community venues across the district
    • Mobile Learning Lab - Two buses equipped with computer labs will travel to neighborhoods and provide training for parents
    • Surveys - Online links will be given so you can share thoughts and ideas
