Parent Liaison

Parent Liaisons:

 A Link Between Home and School 

WHAT IS A PARENT LIAISON

A Parent 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 THE PARENT 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 academic success, the Parent 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.   The Parent Liaison will help you find ways to resolve any issues that may be hindering your child’s success in school.
