Parenting Support at Flowery Elementary School
Parents say that raising their children is the most rewarding aspect of their lives—but that doesn’t mean it’s easy, or that parents always have all the answers.
WebSchoolPro is compiling a database of expert information to help parents deal with and discuss the tougher subjects with their children. Parents will be able to research how to discuss issues as diverse as drug use, divorce and the death of a family member, and can even contribute their own advice to the resource pool.
English Learner Advisory Committee (ELAC)
ELAC is an opportunity for Hispanic parents to meet and learn more about the English language program at Flowery. We discuss the school’s needs, progress and program development as it affects English Language Learners. ELAC also sponsors two important community events during the year, la Noche Decembrina in December and our Cinco de Mayo fiesta in May. All parents are welcome and needed at these meetings throughout the year.
Parent Teacher Organization (PTO)
What is the purpose of the PTO? To enhance the experience of every student at Flowery School.
How
do we do this? By fundraising and organizing community events (i.e.
Halloween Carnival, Santa’s Secret Workshop, Gift Wrap, Turkey and
Wreath sales, Book Giveaway)
What have we accomplished in the past?
- Help pay for field trips
- Provide additional funds to teachers for classroom supplies
- Sponsor the annual book giveaway
- Pay for the Art program K-5
- Support the 5th grade Marin Headlands trip
- Pay for the Science in the Garden program
Why should I be aware of this? This is your voice as a parent to
expect a quality experience for your child at Flowery School. This is
how we are able to educate the whole child.
How can I help? Come to
a monthly planning meeting and sign-up to help. Let your child’s
teacher know you are willing to help. You WILL be contacted!
