The Cougar's Den

Principal's Corner
I hope everyone had a restful fall break. We have some exciting events for the month of December. Several of our staff members and students will be participating in Stuff the Bus, where holiday goods are collected for families in need. We will also be carrying on the tradition of our holiday luncheon, where staff members help prepare and serve a delicious lunch to the students. It is a great time to be a part of the Frank Church community.
Happy Holidays to our Frank Church students and parents!
Title One Parent Notification of Highly Qualified Staff
As a parent of a student attending a school receiving federal program funds, you have the legal right to know:
· Is my child’s teacher licensed to teach the grades and subject(s) assigned?
· Is my child’s teacher teaching with a provisional license, meaning the state has waived requirements for my child’s teacher?
· What is the college major of my child’s teacher(s)?
· What degree or degrees do my child’s teachers hold?
· If there are instructional aides working with my child, what are their qualifications?
· If my child is or will be taught for 4 or more consecutive weeks this year by a teacher who is not highly qualified, will I be notified in a timely manner?
To request the state qualifications of your child’s teacher(s) or instructional aide(s), please contact Derek Gardner at Frank Church High School.
