What is a Family-School Compact?

A School-Family Compact for Achievement is an agreement that parents, students, and teachers develop together. It explains how parents and teachers will work together to make sure all students get the individual support they need to reach and exceed grade level standards.

Effective compacts:

• Begin with standards

• Focus on student learning

• Respond to school data

• Define everyone’s responsibilities

• Depend on us to believe in it and use it

Students

Crestview Elementary students joined staff and parents to develop ideas about how they can succeed in school. Ideas to make connections between learning at home and at school are listed below.

• Talk with my family about new vocabulary words and what I am learning in school

• Take home school newsletters and notices about Family Fun nights

• Keep a daily log of the reading I do at home

• Learn and practice math facts every week

• Come prepared and ready to learn every day

Family fun nights are a great place to learn new things and have fun!

At Home

Crestview Elementary School parents joined staff to develop ideas about how families can support student’s success in reading and math. Families may have other ideas to add to this list.

• Have fun with math; play some of the games we play in class at home

• Play word games with the new vocabulary words and find ways to use these words in family conversations

• Look for the quarterly school newsletter and check out the school website

• Access teachers’ recommended websites to practice skills at home

• Make certain students complete homework assignments

In The Classroom

Our class webpages are a great source of information to stay connected with what is going on in the classroom. Crestview offers two school-wide, family fun nights throughout the school year reinforcing reading, math, and science literacy.

*Literacy Night (February)

*Science Night (April).
