We welcome and encourage your assistance in, providing guidance and service to our students, staff, and community including your attendance and participation at PTA meetings, School Advisory Council, and many more activities to come.

Conferences with parents are an important part of the reporting system. In elementary school, teachers request a minimum of two conferences each year. Teachers and other school staff may request a conference any time that there is concern over a student's progress, behavior, or attendance.

How to Work With Your Child's Teacher

1. Get to know your child's teacher(s), and the earlier the better. Don't wait for a special program if there is a problem or if your child has any special needs. It helps teachers to know everything they can about your child.
2. Share important information that can make it easier for teachers to understand your child. Sometimes things that happen at home can affect how children learn.
3. Find out what's expected. Ask about homework and other special assignments.
4. Join the parent-teacher organization. Be sure to volunteer for at least one thing during the year. That way, you'll be making things better for your child . . . . and for all children in the school.

Report Cards are issued four times a year at the end of each quarter (approximately 45 days). A student must be in attendance in a Broward County Public School twenty-five days in order to receive grades.

Interim Reports

Interim Reports are sent home midway in the grading periods. The purpose of this reports is to inform you of your child's progress thus far in the quarter. If specific difficulties become apparent, positive action can be taken to correct the situation before the report card is issued.

Children are encouraged to study at home. Setting aside a definite time each evening for homework will develop good work habits. Routine study time is an excellent plan, particularly if it is done with a parent in a relaxed and positive setting. The classroom teachers will assign homework.
