Invitation to parents to be a part of the Watkins Mill ES Parent Family Engagement Committee

The term “parent and family engagement” means the participation of parents, guardians, and other family members in regular, two-way, and meaningful communication involving student learning and other school activities. It is our goal for parents and family members to play an integral role in assisting their child’s learning, and parents are full partners with the school in their child’s education. Title I School Parent Engagement Committee are responsible for ensuring that parents have input regarding how school-based parent engagement funds are spent. 

Parents are a crucial part of this process as your feedback and perspectives are centered in our work.  I’d like to invite you to be a member of our Parent and Family Engagement Committee.  We will be meeting several times during the school year. Dates and meeting information will be shared as soon as it is finalized.
