We believe building authentic relationships with families is vital to our work with children. We strive to approach and interact with children and families with the utmost respect and support.
We encourage parents to participate through volunteering in the classrooms and school functions. We use various forms of communication such as direct contact, notes, phone calls and newsletters. Formal conferences will be scheduled during the year. Additional conferences may be held at the request of parents and/or staff.
We also encourage parent participation in the monthly Student Parent Association (SPA) meetings.
The purpose of SPA is to determine the needs of the private and charter schools, participate in fundraising opportunities and help determine allocation of funds. SPA sponsors many items and activities that benefit our private school age children. The TCDS SPA meets once per month and will provide parents with a great opportunity to get to know one another and become involved in their childs early education.
