As part of our Title l program, Woodstation Elementary School and our
families will develop a Family-School Compact for Achievement. This is
an agreement that parents, teachers, and students develop together that explains how families and teachers will
work together to make sure all students reach grade level standards. The compact outlines how teachers,
parents, and students form a partnership for student learning and stresses the importance of
communication between home and school. In August,
input from parents, teachers, and students is
gathered. Parent input is sought on compact drafts
and parents approve the final copy. Parents, students,
and teachers sign the compact cover sheet indicating
the role each has in the education process. Family School compacts will be updated
annually based on parent feedback.
The compacts are shared with
parents during Family and School Team (FAST) Group Meetings and Family and School Team (FAST) Parent-Teacher Conferences. Extra copies are
always available from the
teacher, on the website, in the Family
Resource Center, and distributed at
meetings throughout the year.
