908. INTERACTION WITH PARENTS

1.Purpose

  The Board believes that the education of children is a joint responsibility shared with the parents of the school community. To ensure that the best interests of the students are served, a strong program of communication between home and school must be maintained.

2.Authority
SC 1317

  The Board believes that the parents have the ultimate responsibility for the in-school behavior of their children, including the behavior of students who have reached the legal age of majority but are still under parental authority.

3.Guidelines

  The Board directs that the following activities be implemented each school year to encourage parent-school cooperation:

 

1.  Parent-teacher conferences to permit two-way communication between home and school;

 

2.  Open houses in each district school to provide parents with the opportunity to see the school facilities, meet the faculty, and review the educational programs on a first-hand basis;

 

3.  Special events of a cultural, ethnic, or topical nature which may be initiated by parent groups and which involve the cooperative effort of students, parents and faculty and are of general interest to the schools or community.
