After+School

Research shows that teacher involvement with students and families garners student achievement. We’re a team. the student, the teacher, and the school are all working together to benefit our ‘kids’ and their futures. For that reason, all professionals are expected to attend school functions throughout the school year. This is our opportunity to reach out to our ‘customers’ beyond just the classroom.
