Parent Involvement

The Montgomery staff and parents have collected to ensure accountability for the success of every child. The communication process begins early, as kindergarten parents participate in a Readiness workshop in the spring and return for an orientation in August. At Back to School Night in September, teachers focus their presentations on District Standards of Achievement, opportunities for involvement and leadership, and Home/School partnerships.
