Parents and Families

Family Resource Center

Parent and families play an important role in their child's education as well as prepare them for academic achievement and lifelong learning.  Schools, families, and the community must be actively involved in developing strong programs and policies that support the academic success of every student.  On this page, you will find various resources to help you with your child's education and beyond!
