Attention Veterans
This Week's Title I Tidbit
We believe GIA scholars are more likely to succeed academically if their families are involved in their education. Research studies have found that parental involvement is more important to scholar success, at every grade level, than family income or education.
GIA is committed to increasing the academic achievement of each scholar. We want our parents to know they are welcome at GIA and that we really listen to their voices.
We want to collaborate with parents to ensure that their scholars have a supportive learning environment at school and at home.
Please feel free to attend an upcoming Title I Parent Meeting to hear from us and share your input for how we can best utilize and improve teaching and learning for our scholars.
