Parents
We are looking forward to the next school year.
Please refer to the links at the left of this page for important school forms and information. We are going to make forms from Student Check-In available on-line so that you can cut down the time spent at each station. Parents will be able to print them out, complete them, and turn them in at time of check-in.
Annual Family Satisfaction Survey
Parents, we value you input. Please stay posted for the annual survey, which is made available around May each school year.
Parent Involvement
The Pinnacle Charter School believes that the number one reason for the success of students is ” You, The Parent”.
Parent involvement is crucial to the success of a student and their education. We have many avenues for parent involvement at the Pinnacle that require various amounts of action.
Type of Involvement
Volunteer
- Parents are encouraged to volunteer at school in the classroom. Speak to your student’s teacher to get set up.
- Help at special events and extra curricular activities.
- Support our Athletic program. Attend the events and assist the coaches.
- If parents are unable to volunteer, they can support the school by becoming a Pinnacle Community Partner.
Communicate
- Communication with your student and the school is very important. We encourage parents to communicate with their teachers via email or by calling them at their extensions.
- You do not have to wait until the Parent/Teacher Conference Days to conference with your teacher(s). Email them or call them to schedule an appointment.
- Communicate with your student about what they learn each day regarding homework assignments, future projects, or special events. This will show them that you feel education is important.
- Give your feedback online. Tell us what you like or what you would like to see different.
Participate
Parents can participate in their student’s education in many ways that fit even the busiest schedules. Participation can be in different forms:
- Attend special events and field trips. This can be very rewarding for students and parents.
- Find volunteer needs that can be done from your home by checking with your teacher or the school newsletter.
- Set aside time each day to talk to your child about their day. Ask questions and offer your assistance. This can be one of the most valuable ways of participating in their education.
Support
Parents can support their student by:
- Offering positive feedback.
- Assisting your student to find the best time for homework and a work space.
- Staying tuned to school activities and school information.
- Viewing your student’s planner for homework assignments.
- Visiting www.new.schoolnotes.com where some teachers post daily homework assignments.
- Verbally reminding your students that they are available for questions and assistance.
- Committing to transporting them to and from school activities, if possible.
- Becoming a Pinnacle Community Partner.
