Family Engagement Plans
-
Each school year, every KCKPS school develops a Parental Involvement-Family Engagement Plan to provide regular opportunities for parents, families, and schools to exchange ideas about how to support and promote the educational growth of each student. Working together ensures a high level of success for every student. Listed below are ways in which schools and families partner together in educating students during the course of the school year.
Opportunities for Parent/Guardians to Support Student Academic Achievement
Each year, your student's teacher will contact you to develop a home/school connection and provide you with an email address and phone number where you can regularly contact him/her with questions/concerns. Additionally, the school will provide parents with a calendar/schedule of engagement events such as those below.
- Open House and Back to School Nights
- Family Advocacy Days
- Curriculum Nights
- Other Meetings and Celebrations
Opportunities for Parent/Guardians to be Informed of Annual Student Achievement and Growth
While teachers will provide you with frequent informal progress reports, our school will also provide you with the following formal student achievement reports during each year.
- FastBridge achievement reports
- Mid-Quarter and Quarterly Grade Reports
- Grade Level KEP English Language Arts (ELA) & Math achievement reports (Spring)
- On an individual basis: KEPLA reports
Opportunities for Parent/Guardians to be Involved in School Community Activities
- Title I Annual Program Planning & Review Meeting
- Title I Annual Parent Evaluation Survey
- Other School/Neighborhood Specific Events
In addition to the Parental Involvement/Family Engagement Plan, the schools also partner with families through the School-Home Compact (listed above). The School-Home compacts are developed with input from parents, staff, and students to outline the important things each of them can do to provide the best possible education for each student.
