School—Parent Compacts

What is a School-Parent Compact?

Updated February 14, 2025 — A School-Parent Compact for Achievement is an agreement that parents, students, and teachers develop together.  It explains how parents and teachers will work together to make sure all our students reach grade-level standards.

Effective compacts:

     ·        Link to goals of the school improvement plan

     ·        Focus on student learning skills

     ·        Describe how teachers will help students develop those skills using high-quality instruction

     ·        Share strategies parents can use at home

     ·        Explain how teachers and parents will communicate about student progress

     ·        Describe opportunities for parents to volunteer, observe, and participate in the classroom.
