Parent & Family Engagement

Title 1
Tannahill Intermediate School will develop a parent involvement plan centered around four critical involvement strategies:

1. Provide a variety of school activities. 

2. Support and engage learning activities that parents can participate in school and at home.

3. Provide training to Tannahill staff to strengthen the home/school partnership.

4. Communicate frequently with families. 

• We will encourage parents/guardians to be involved in the development of the use of Title 1 funds, in planning activities, offering suggestions and asking questions regarding policies and programs.

• We will  invite families to a school meeting to which all attending will be informed of the school’s participation in the Title I program and the parents’ right to be involved. 

• We will engage parents/guardians in the planning, review, and improvement of Tannahill’s Title I program by sending home electronic surveys asking for rates, suggestions and discussions to help improve.

• We will help parents play an integral role in assisting student learning by:

• Supplying families with websites that offer school tips at home.

• Providing textbooks to take home to assist in learning.

• After school conferences to help assist families. 

• We will ensure that parents/guardians and staff work as a team to improve student achievement and better the communication by use of, School website, Skylert, School Status and Social Media. 

• We will provide responses to family suggestions in a timely manner. 

• We will coordinate, provide technical assistance, and other support necessary to assist families in actively partingpin in the planning and implementation of Tannahill’s parent involvement program.
