PARENTS' RIGHTS

If you have a student attending a Title 1 school, your school has certain obligations and you have certain opportunities and rights. Parents are usually most interested in the achievement level of their child. Your school is required by law to keep you informed of your child's achievement level. Parents may request information concerning the professional qualifications of their child's teachers including the degrees held, certifications held, and whether the teacher is certified in the area he/she is teaching. Parents in Title I schools must be a part of developing a written Parent Involvement Policy that is distributed to all parents and to the local community and announced at an annual meeting. Every Title I school district must have a similar Parent Involvement Policy applicable at the District level.
