Project Cornerstone Asset of the Month

SEPTEMBER Asset of the Month: PARENT INVOLVEMENT IN SCHOOLING Parent(s) are actively involved in helping young people succeed in school.

The Importance of Parent Involvement in Schooling Research shows that youth whose parents are actively involved in their schooling are more engaged in school. Students are less likely to be delinquent or drop out, and more likely to achieve higher grades and standardized test scores. Joyce Epstein of the National Network of Partnership Schools developed a framework for understanding six different kinds of parent involvement: 

1. Parenting: families establish home environments that support children’s learning

2. Communicating: families and schools engage in effective two-way communications about student expectations and progress

3. Volunteering: parents directly support the classroom or school

4. Learning at home: families help students with homework and school-related decisionmaking and planning

5. Decision making: parents are involved in school decisions

6. Community collaboration: community services are resources integrated to strengthen schools and families

Attendance Matters

September is Attendance Month

It is essential for your healthy student(s) to be at school on time every day ready to learn. Please plan vacations around the school schedule.  Our job is to teach your child, and we are unable to do so if they are not present every day. We appreciate you partnering with us to provide the best possible education for your children. If you need to call your child in sick, please contact our Health Clerk Mrs. Denise Figueria. 

The school office is open from 7:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. on school days.  Our office telephone number is (408) 364-4279.  If you are reporting your child absent, you may call our 24-hour absence recorder at (408) 341-7132.

Inquiring Minds Find Answers in School Handbook

Helping your child navigate school this year is easier when they know the rules.

From the start of the day to the end, we want your child to have a safe, happy and healthy school day. Please review our handbook for helpful information and expectations.
