EMPLOYEE MANTRA

"The Power of One"

The Macon County School District Parental Involvement Plan is based on the framework through which families, educators, and communities can work together to improve teaching and learning. Families have a major influence on children’s success in school and through life. As a result of this influence, positive results with student achievement occur when schools, families, and community groups work together to support learning. 

Macon County School District believes that engaging parents/guardians in their children's educational endeavors is essential to improving student achievement and that it should foster and support active parent/guardian involvement in all of its educational endeavors.Research indicates that a positive partnership between school and family will contribute to student achievement and success in school. These benefits include:

·         Improved ability of parents to assist their children with school and learning

·         Increased student achievement

·         Increased student attendance

·         Improved student attitudes and positive behavior

·         Increased graduation rate

·         Greater success in post-secondary education

The Macon County School District Parental Involvement Plan was developed to build trusting, collaborative relationships among administrators, teachers, families, and community members. It focuses on family needs as well as their cultural differences.  As a working document, this plan seeks to alleviate barriers or factors which might inhibit meaningful interaction between parents and school personnel. This document will continue to grow and develop as the current process is evaluated annually for effectiveness.  

Through collaboration, coordination, technical assistance, and other support, the Macon County School District administration, teachers, parents, and community leaders offer the following plan for parental involvement in our Title I schools and for compliance with local board policy, state law, and Federal mandates of No Child Left Behind (NCLB) and is accessible to all on the district website and disseminated to all parents.
