“Parent involvement isn’t a luxury — it’s an integral component of student achievement and school reform. Decades of research studies on the effect of meaningful parent involvement programs in schools have found that when parents are involved, students achieve more, regardless of socioeconomic status, ethnic/racial background, or the parents’ education level. When parents are involved, students exhibit more positive attitudes and behavior.”
Every successful, high achieving student begins with a solid relationship between the student, teachers, and parents. Therefore, your participation and presence is essential for your child’s success at Woodworth Middle School and beyond. You are encouraged to attend Open House and meet your child’s teachers on September 16, 2015. On behalf of the Woodworth staff, we look forward to another exciting year!
Respectfully,
Mrs. Alie-Bazzi, Principal
Woodworth Middle School
