Educational research validates that support at home is critical to a student's academic success. Community involvement with active school volunteers and business partnerships adds to the success of students.
The Vision 2020 sets the following goals
- Parents/guardians will be an integral element of each student's educational experience.
- Parents will be active home learning guides for their children to support academic learning.
- Parents and students will collaborate with teachers in designing individual learning plans for each student.
- Parents will be able to constantly monitor their child's performance in real time with appropriate technology.
- Parents will play an integral role in school site governance councils and cluster councils.
- Community volunteers and partnerships will augment the work of teachers in helping each student succeed.
- Volunteers will provide special support for students who do not have sufficient family support.
- Community members will participate in cluster councils alongside parents and staff.
