Family Support

We are honored to be the school district's Family Engagement & Student Success Specialists. We look forward to helping provide resources and support services to our students and their families. We will do this by connecting and building positive relationships to gain a better understanding of the needs of our students and families. Building relationships helps us form strong future connections between our students, families, staff members and surrounding community. We also want to help students gain confidence and identify tools to continue on a positive path for their current and future educational careers.

Please feel free to contact us in whatever way you prefer. If you decide to text, please identify yourself. We are also available to meet with families at their school, in our offices or at your home.
