Parent Liaison Information
What is a Family Liaison?
A Family Liaison is a person who works to bridge the communication between school and home by helping parents get the information, help, and support they need to ensure their child's academic and social success in school.
How can a Family Liaison help me?
Often, parents feel uncomfortable about sharing their questions or concerns with the teachers or school administration. Because good communication between home and school is such a vital part of your child's success, the Family Liaison will listen to your concerns and then work with you to make sure that your situation, question, or point of view is expressed and understood. They will help and support you if you need to find ways to resolve issues that may be hindering your child's success in school. Family Liaisons want to be sure that you understand what you can do to get involved, keep informed, share information, and help your child do his or her best.
