Parent Education Requirements

In addition to volunteer hours, parents are also required to complete 10 education hours per year to stay informed and engaged in their child’s academic journey. These hours can be earned by attending workshops, guest speaker events, webinars, and other educational opportunities provided by the school. This requirement ensures that parents have the tools and knowledge to support their child’s growth and development both inside and outside the classroom.

Each family is required to complete 10 hours of approved Parent Education hours each school year.

Completed forms can be turned in to the front office or emailed to Cathy Allard at [email protected].
