A policy proposal set for consideration Thursday aims to boost parental involvement in the education of children who attend school in the Fairfield-Suisun School District.

The policy under review states, “the governing board recognizes that parents/guardians are their children’s first and most influential teachers and that sustained parent/guardian involvement in the education of their children contributes greatly to student achievement and a positive school environment.

“The superintendent or designee shall consult with staff and parents/guardians and family members in the development of meaningful opportunities at all grade levels for them to be involved in district and school activities at all grade levels; advisory, decision-making, and advocacy roles; and activities to support learning at home.”
