Reading is Fun for Elementary
Parents/Guardians Too!
One of the key components of the elementary program is parent education. In an effort to educate our parents about district programs and to provide them with tools to support their children at home, the
K-3 elementary schools provide several different programs throughout the school year:
TITLE I NIGHT
Offered three times a year per federal grant requirements, Title 1 Night is presented to parents for students who qualify for this reading program to help them meet challenging state academic standards.
FIRST GRADE LITERACY NIGHT
First grade teachers and reading specialists host this yearly session in each school to educate parents about the district's Balanced Reading Program, including examples of actual text utilized in the classroom. Parents are provided ideas on how to support and encourage their child's reading progress at home.
KINDERGARTEN LITERACY NIGHT
Hosted by the kindergarten teachers, this session allows parents to observe and learn more about the literacy components of the kindergarten program. Teachers model literacy strategies so that parents can provide support at home.
