The Parent Advocacy Program’s purpose, as stated in its Mission Statement, is “to aid individual parents who may need additional support to achieve understanding/resolution to issues or concerns about their child/children’s schooling.” You may contact a trained volunteer Parent Advocate by phoning 713-6000 Voice Mail Box number: 2090. A general guideline is to first take a school problem to the teacher, and if not resolved to the parent’s satisfaction, then to the principal, and again, if not resolved, then to the Parent Advocate.
