EFFECTIVE PARENT-SCHOOL COMMUNICATION
PARTNER WITH YOUR SCHOOL
The level of collaboration between families and educators is an important predictor of student academic achievement. Parents and family members who establish strong, positive relationships with school staff have more opportunities to learn about the education system and become better education advocates.
Successful school-family partnerships are built on mutual respect, trust, equality, and a joint vision for student achievement. There are a number of ways you can be an active partner with your child’s school:
WHO DO I CONTACT IF I HAVE A CONCERN ABOUT MY CHILD’S SCHOOL?
If there is a concern, contact the school to request an opportunity to address your concerns and have a dialogue about the issue. Concerns that are not resolved at the school level may be addressed by calling (702) 799-CC SD, where you will be directed to the appropriate department.
There is also a public concern process per CCSD Policy 1213 that provides a formal investigation of the stated issue and provides the person filing the concern with a written response of that investigation. For more information, call the office of Community and Government Relations at (702) 799-5005 or visit ccsd.net/publicconcern.
