We, at Gladstone Street Elementary School, believe parents are a child’s first teacher. Working together will help foster the learning and growth for our students. Sharing strategies and ideas on how best to meet the student’s needs are critical for growth. Staff will participate in meetings with parents/guardians to share grade level information, resources and ideas. Communication will be made through phone calls, student planners, apps,
emails and newsletters.
Regardless of income or background, students with involved parents are more likely to:
- Attend school regularly
- Have better and improved social skills/behavior and adapt
more easily to school
- Earn higher grades/test scores and enroll in higher-level
programs
- Be promoted and pass their classes
- Graduate and go on to further education
When asked, students said parents pushing them made a difference.
Gladstone, along with the Family Center are committed to helping you get involved and attend family engagement events. Please call or email if you need assistance in order to participate in our events.
