The LCPS Parents as Educational Partners (PEP) program is designed to provide school sites/staff continual opportunities to engage families and begin cultivating meaningful relationships with families, ultimately, strengthening crucially important home-school partnerships. School-based PEP Partner teams represent LCPS staff who are dedicated to the ongoing hardwork and heartwork of family engagement. PEP is designed to provide resources and service to English Learner families, specifically those who are English language emergent, however, this program aims to uplift, encourage, and empower families. Every family is unique in their perspective, and that perspective is deeply valued in the PEP space. PEP is not a space to enforce assimilation, but is a safe space for families to be engaged and learn; and be uplifted in their learning.

If you are interested in participating in a PEP program, these are the schools that are currently offering sessions during School Year 2023-2024. Please contact the FACE office for any questions.
