School Parent and Family Engagement Policy

d’Iberville High School

Created January 2021


 

In support of strengthening student academic achievement, d’Iberville High School receives Title I, Part A funds and therefore must jointly develop with, agree on with, and distribute to parents and family members of participating children a written parent and family engagement policy, agreed on by such parents, that shall describe the means of carrying out the requirements of The Every Students Succeeds Act (ESSA) Section 1116.  Parents shall be notified of the policy in an understandable and uniform format and, to the extent practicable, provided in a language the parents can understand.  Such policy shall be made available to the local community and updated periodically to meet the changing needs of the parents and the school.  The policy establishes the school’s expectations for parent and family engagement and describes how the school will implement a number of specific parental and family engagement activities. 

 

d’Iberville High School understands that parent and family engagement means the participation of parents and families in regular, two-way, and meaningful communication involving student academic learning and other school activities, including ensuring:

  • Parents and families play an integral role in assisting their child’s learning

  • Parents and families are encouraged to be actively involved in their child’s education at school

  • Parents and families are full partners in their child’s education and are included, as appropriate, in decision-making and on advisory committees to assist in the education of their child

 

d’Iberville High School agrees to implement the following requirements as outlined by ESSA Section 1116:

  1. ANNUAL TITLE I MEETING

    d’Iberville High School will take the following actions to conduct an annual meeting, at a convenient time, and encourage and invite all parents of participating children to attend to inform them about the school’s Title I program, the nature of the Title I program, the parents’ requirements, the school parental involvement policy, the schoolwide plan, and the school-parent compact. d’Iberville High School will hold a virtual Federal Programs Annual Meeting in February to share information about federal programs, curriculum, assessment, and school expectations. Parents will be informed of Title 1 participation, its requirements and their right to be involved.

  2. FLEXIBLE NUMBER OF MEETINGS

    d’Iberville High School will offer a flexible number of engagement meetings at convenient times for families, such as meetings in the morning or evening (for which the school may use Title I funds to provide transportation, child care or home visits, as such services relate to parental involvement).

  3. JOINTLY DEVELOPED

    d’Iberville High School will take the following actions to involve parents in an organized, ongoing, and timely way, in the planning, review, and improvement of programs under Title I, Part A, including the planning, review, and improvement of the school parent and family engagement policy and the joint development of the schoolwide program plan. In September the school Parent Compact was posted to the school’s website for public comment. In January, the School Family and Parent Engagement Policy will be posted to the school’s web site for public comment. During the annual Title I meeting, the plan will be distributed and discussed. Attendees will be given an opportunity to complete a survey on how to spend Parent Engagement funds. In May, a virtual Title I meeting will be held, and all stakeholders will be given an opportunity to complete an evaluation of the 2020-2021 school year. Staff will share the results of the needs assessment and a summary of how Title 1 funds will be used. Stakeholders will be asked to give input, concerns, and comments.

  4. COMMUNICATION

    d’Iberville High School will provide parents of participating children timely information about programs under Title I, including:

    1. a description and explanation of the curriculum in use,

    2. forms of academic assessment used to measure student progress,

    3. achievement levels of the challenging State academic standards, and

    4. if requested by parents, opportunities for regular meetings to formulate suggestions and participate, as appropriate, in decisions relating to the education of their children and respond to any such suggestions as soon as practicable possible.

      Information related to the school and parent programs, meetings, and other activities, will be sent to the parents of participating children in an understandable and uniform format, including alternative formats upon request and, to the extent practicable, in a language the parents can understand.

  5. DISSENSION PROCESS

    d’Iberville High School will submit any comments/concerns to the Harrison County School District Superintendent’s office if the schoolwide plan and/or parent and family engagement policy is not satisfactory to parents. 

    Any comments/concerns can be emailed to the Director of Federal Programs, Melissa Garrison, at [email protected] or phone at 228-539-6500.

  6. SCHOOL-PARENT COMPACT

    d’Iberville High School will take the following actions to jointly develop with parents of participating children a school-parent compact that outlines how families, school, staff, and students will share the responsibility for improved student academic achievement and develop a partnership to help children achieve the state’s high standard and how the plan is used, reviewed, and updated. In September the school Parent Compact was posted to the school’s website for public comment.
