Research shows that the more parents are involved in their child's education, the more likely the child is to be successful. At PreEminent Charter School, parents are an integral part of their child's education. In many ways, they are as important as the teachers themselves. Our environment encourages parents to take an active role in partnership with the school. This close interaction among teacher, parent, and student promotes the optimum learning environment for the child. Most importantly, it keeps parents engaged and helps ensure the child's success. Open communication between the school and parents is fostered and encouraged to ensure that parents know what is happening in their child’s school and classroom.
Parents are also encouraged to volunteer their time in the classroom, performing a variety of tasks such as reading to students, tutoring or simply helping the teacher with class projects. Research shows that active parental involvement improves a child’s success in school.
At PreEminent Charter School, we firmly believe in the benefits of a true parent-teacher-child partnership and we are fortunate to have a tremendous group of parents who are true partners in their child’s success. We believe parental involvement is so critical that we ask parents to sign a “contract” with the school. This contract commits them to take an active role in their child’s education - a role that includes getting them to school each day, on time, well-rested and ready to learn, with all homework and projects complete.
To foster parental partnership we offer ample opportunities for parents to get involved. Whether it’s volunteering for playground duty during recess, shelving books in the library, chaperoning a field trip or helping planning the school carnival, PreEminent Charter School welcomes parents at school. We are also proud to offer parents who come in to give of their time and energy a place of their own, a designated parent room where parents can work on projects and hold meetings. This is our way of telling you that we hope to see you in the building often.
