PARENT INVOLVEMENT
Because we believe that raising godly children is the single most important responsibility given to parents, the school encourages parents to be actively involved in every aspect of their child’s life, which includes their formal education. Children benefit when parents and other extended family members are involved directly in their formal education. The following outlines ways that such involvement is encouraged:
1. Assist in the classroom as a volunteer helper.
2. Serve as a special guest volunteer by sharing special talents or vocations. This
may include story telling, music, crafts, etc.
3. Act as a chaperone for field trips.
4. Assist with special events at the school including programs, class activities and
holiday celebrations.
5. Attend Parent-Teacher Conferences.
6. Request at any time, an informal or a formal conference, if you feel that their
is a legitimate need for the meeting.
7. Closely monitor your child’s progress and support the learning process with
activities at home.
8. Contribute to a positive school environment by following guidelines for
handling problems and complaints.
9. Read all teacher and school correspondence.
10. Praise and encourage your child as he/she strives to succeed.
11. Support school discipline with your child as needed.
12. Be an encourager to the school staff.
13. Participate actively in the Mid-America Preparatory School Parent/Teacher
Fellowship.
14. Help our teachers by volunteering as playground or lunchroom supervisor.
