Parents can be involved in their child’s future education by helping them research college choices and getting involved in the college search and application process.
Using email is usually the easiest way to communicate but be patient with the teachers. They want to respond as soon as possible; however, it is hard with our class schedule to respond during instructional time. As this is the case, please allow teachers 24 hours to answer.
