It's Right For Parents To Be Involved

Here in Sherman ISD, we want parents to be engaged with their child’s education and we encourage parents to connect with teachers often, attend school-sponsored events, and join supportive organizations like our campus PTAs and Booster Clubs. Throughout the school year, we will be highlighting parents being active within their schools and involved in their child's education, because it is right for parents to be involved.
