Parent/Guardian Classroom Visits

Parents wishing to visit the classroom to observe their children are asked to contact the
teacher in advance in order to avoid conflicts with special subjects and other programs
when children may not be in the classroom. To ensure the integrity of the instructional
program, 24-hour notice for classroom visitation is recommended. Visitation is
considered based on the welfare of our students and staff along with maintaining the
instructional program. All visitors to schools must report to the school office when
entering to receive authorization before visiting elsewhere in the building. Since young
students are easily distracted, please do not bring other children when this type of visit
is made. All visitors must sign in at the office and get a visitor badge.

Parent Involvement

The partnership of the school, the home, and the community is vital to the success of
each of our students. We welcome the involvement of parents in our school;
opportunities exist during and outside the school day. We encourage regular, two-way
meaningful communication involving student academic learning and other school activities
to ensure parents play an integral role in assisting their child’s learning. We seek ways in
which parents can participate in decision-making and advisory committees to assist in
the education of their child.

The VIP (Vitally Interested Persons) organization coordinates parent volunteers in the
school. These parents help with a variety of activities from assistance in the lunchroom
to assistance within the classroom. These volunteers are an important part of the daily
operation of the school. Volunteer forms can be found in the school office and on the
building website.

Parents can also participate in PTO and PTA. Both organizations actively support the
school and provide support to parents whose children are of school age.

Our website will include information about other opportunities offered by the school and
by the school district for parents to join with us in conversation about the education of
our children. We value your role in making a difference in the lives of the children of
Hudson.
