Student/Parent/School Compact for Learning
The purpose of this compact is to communicate a common understanding of home and school responsibilities and to foster the development of a school-parent relationship to help all children achieve the New Jersey State Achievement Standards (Common Core). It is the school’s responsibility to provide high quality curriculum and instruction in a supportive and effective environment. As part of that commitment, the school will address the importance of communication between parents and teachers on an ongoing basis through such efforts as annual parent teacher conferences, frequent reports to parents on their child’s progress and reasonable access to staff, opportunities to volunteer and participate in their child’s class, and observations of classroom activities. The commitment requested in this compact are voluntary and in no way legally binding.
AS A PARENT, I will encourage and support my child’s learning by doing the following:
- Requiring regular school attendance
- Providing a quiet, well lighted study area at home
- Encouraging my child to attend after school learning institutes and extra curricular activities
- Attending parent-teacher conferences
- Attending at least two (2) Parent Advisory Meetings each year, more if possible
- Providing a library card and supporting good reading habits
- Setting an example for my child by being a lifelong learner myself
- Encouraging my child to wear the proper school uniform, daily
- Encouraging my child to follow the rules and regulations of the school
- Communicating positive information regarding the total school community when discussing the school with my child and/or neighbors
AS A SCHOOL, we will support parental involvement by doing the following:
- Providing an environment that allows for positive communications between the teacher, parent and student
- Encouraging teachers to provide regular homework assignments that reinforce classroom instruction per district policy
- Providing opportunities for parents to be involved in the school and in their child’s education
- Soliciting parent and community input, through PAC meetings and regular communication via the district e-board system
- Offering parent workshops to encourage lifelong learning
- Notifying parents of school events in a timely and efficient manner
- Providing reasonable access to the classrooms so that parents may observe the educational process in action
