La Porte Junior High Title 1 Parent Involvement Policy 2016-2017

At La Porte Junior High, we believe that ongoing involvement of parents is very important to the success of our students’ education. To meet Title 1 Schools requirements, our school must create and support a strong parent-school partnership. La Porte Junior High is a school-wide Title 1 school; therefore, all students benefit from the funding and are considered participants. As a Title 1 school, we encourage parent volunteerism and plan meaningful activities in which parents and families may participate.

Annually, La Porte Junior High will convene a Title 1 orientation meeting, also called Bullpup Camp, at the beginning of each school year. All parents will be invited and encouraged to attend. The purpose of the meeting will be to inform parents of the school’s participation under Title 1 and to explain Title 1 requirements and parents’ rights to be involved. Teachers will also inform parents regarding the curriculum used in the school, the forms of assessment used to measure student progress, and the proficiency levels students are expected to meet.

Meetings will be scheduled at various times of the day, such as morning, mid-day and evening, and on various days of the week, in order to make parental involvement in such meetings as convenient as possible.

A group of parents, community members, and school staff will be used to form the Campus Performance Objective Committee (CPOC), which will be responsible for the construction and revision of this policy and the Home/School Involvement compacts, in addition to the development of the School-wide Title 1 plan. The CPOC will meet regularly. La Porte Junior High will provide parents with timely and pertinent information regarding parent involvement, their child’s achievement and the school’s performance. This will include, but is not limited to, the following:

• Yearly Title 1 and Curriculum Open House meeting • School performance records and proficiency level expectations distributed at the beginning of each school year • Written communication from teacher, including:

3 weeks progress reports, Six weeks report cards and Formal standardized test scores reports • Oral communication from teacher, including:

Phone contacts, Conference opportunities and Interactions at after-school functions • School Council meetings • Newsletters • Posting upcoming events on the outside marquee and school website • Timely responses to parent suggestions through telephone calls, notes and conferences

Parents, through the annual Open House meeting and the La Porte Jr. High student handbook, will be assisted in understanding the following: The National

Education Goals, the State of Texas’s content standards and student performance standards, school improvement process (when applicable), the school wide Title 1 program, the state of Texas’s assessments and Title 1 requirements. Translations will be provided to the extent possible, funded by Title 1.

When appropriate, the Parent Volunteer Coordinator (Ms. Norton) will work to build partnerships with organizations, churches, businesses, and other schools in the community. These partnerships will be informed in order to improve the involvement of the community in the school, through volunteer work. La Porte Jr. High will continue partnerships with Kaneka, Lyondell/Basel and Beacon Credit Union to utilize their mentors to assist our students.

The CPOC will develop a home/school involvement compact. This compact will outline how the parent, school staff, and students will share the responsibility for improved students’ academic achievement and the means by which the school and parents will build a partnership to help students achieve the state’s standards. The compact shall address the importance of communication between teachers and parents on an ongoing basis. The compact will be distributed to all parents at the beginning of school. Translations in other languages will be available as needed.
