Jefferson City School District School-Parent Compact

  • Title I is a program for students who need additional support.  The goal of the Jefferson City School District Title I program is to improve each student’s progress academically and/or behaviorally.  Parents, students and teachers must work together to accomplish this goal.  The purpose of this compact is to develop a partnership between parent, student and school, which will help the student achieve the standards and expectations of Jefferson City School District.

As a School, we will:

    • Provide high-quality curriculum and instruction in a supportive and effective learning environment that enables all children to meet the Missouri Learning Standards.
    • Assign meaningful homework with clear directions and return it promptly with comments.
    • Be aware of the educational/individual needs of your child and offer special assistance and appropriate time to students who progress at different rates.
    • Provide parents frequent reports of their child’s progress.
    • Be accessible to parents through phone calls, email, and scheduled meetings.

As a Parent, I will:

    • Monitor my child’s progress and supervise completion of homework.
    • Read at home together or encourage my child to read nightly.
    • Stay informed about my child’s education by reading all communications from school and responding appropriately.
    • Make sure that my child attends school regularly and arrives on time.

As a Student, I will:

    • Attend school regularly.
    • Respect and cooperate with other students and adults.
    • Make good choices like paying attention in class, staying on task, doing my best, and completing my homework.
    • Spend time each day reading at home and talking about what I have learned at school.
    • Give all notes and information from school to my parent/guardian daily.
