To better engage families with their children’s educations, Modesto City Schools is preparing to launch a Parent Ambassadors program for the upcoming school year.
Eventually, there will be an ambassador at each school, the Board of Education was told at its June 7 meeting. They will connect parents to internal and external resources, answer questions and share information on ways to get involved with student activities and athletics, school activities, parent groups and more.
The presentation by district staff was met with comments by trustees about such things as ensuring those hired know the school communities and reflect the district’s diversity and languages. Staff also was asked how effectiveness will be measured.
