A strong partnership between the school and home is essential if a quality educational program is to be provided to all students.  The Nellie H. Stokes Elementary School is dedicated to the philosophy that parent involvement is integral to the success of each child.  The Nellie H. Stokes Elementary School will work with parents to establish regular, two-way meaningful communication to ensure

• Parents play an integral role in assisting their child's learning;

• Parents are encouraged to be actively involved in their child's education at school; and 

• Parents are full partners in their child's education and are included, as appropriate, in decision-making and on advisory committees to assist in the eduation of their child
