Parents’ Rights
Parents have the right to a copy of the law and explanation of policy. Parents also have the right to contribute their input into the developments of a Title I program, its implementations and evaluation, and to have activities that are specifically designed to help them help their children improve their academics.
Responsibilities
In order to become informed about the law, Parents should be sure to attend the Title I parental involvement (PAC) meetings, and other activities offered at their school. They should also be prepared to become real participants in their children’s education. Sometimes that means making a few sacrifices, but the reward is more than worth it-sharing in the preparation of your children for a good and fulfilling future,
