At Glenn Duncan, frequent and meaningful communication is crucial to the success of establishing a positive home-school partnership. At the beginning of the school year, a school calendar is distributed to students that contains important events/dates, as well as school policies. A newsletter goes home on a monthly basis with pertinent information and upcoming activities. The Connect-Ed system is utilized to inform/remind families of upcoming activities and any changes to the daily schedule. The school marquee informs families of important current information. The adminstration at Duncan has implemented an open door policy for all stakeholders that allows for matters to be addressed in a timely manner. Teachers communicate with parents via e-mail, phone calls, home notes, and homework logs. Our parent involvement facilitator enhances our home-school relationships by welcoming parents, providing information about relevant resources, translating, and planning family activities. We have expanded opportunities for parents to build their skills by offering adult English and computer classes. Parents have been empowered to help their children by attending academic activity nights, such as CRT, RTI, and STEM Nights.
