Family Engagement Interest Session
We are excited to have a joint Family Engagement Interest Session via Zoom on Monday, September 9, 2024, from 5:30 pm to 6:30 pm. During this meeting, families will gain knowledge about the current parent engagement opportunities. We will have representatives from our Parent Advisory Committee (PAC), the Parent Equity Committee (PEC), the PTA, and Drew Dads, sharing why they joined, and the impact it has had on their families. Applications for new PAC members will be available during the meeting. However, both Drew Dads and PEC are open to any parent with no applications needed. Families are also still welcome to become members of the PTA. The goal is to have all of our Family Engagement Groups functioning no later than October 1st. The meeting cadence for the year will be decided once each group’s members are in place.
We look forward to seeing you virtually. Please use the Zoom link below to access the meeting, and the QR Code to register for the Interest Session.
