"It Takes a Village to Raise a
Child"..
To
Raise A Child, " is a popular African Proverb. Our goal is to provide
high level, quality services and programs to parents and caregivers of
children within our school district. The challenge for the Division of
Family and Community Engagement is to remain focused on providing the
opportunities for parents and their communities to build and support
new and existing organizations, programs, activities and resources
that will increase their capacity as literate lifelong learning
communities.
We
offer two Parent Resource Centers. These centers are located at Artemus Ward
and Audubon Schools.
The Parent Resource Center will house the Adult Literacy Centers using
the
LightSpan
Achieve Now Program. LightSpan
is an interactive learning initiative, which uses educational CD-ROM
software in math, science and literacy powered by Sony Play Station.
LightSpan is being used in over fifty elementary schools within the Cleveland
Metropolitan School District.
In
keeping with the focus of engaging parents in their child's educational
development, we have the support of teachers, staff, civic and community
organizations and alternative learning institutions to assist us in
developing meaningful programs. We believe the one sure way of
helping a child become a better student is by helping our parents,
family members and community members to become better informed partners.
"The primary goal of the
Cleveland Metropolitan School District is to become a premier school
district in the United States of America." - Eugene T.W. Sanders,
Ph.D, Chief Executive Officer.
