Hello, my name is Mrs. Michelle Carter and I have been given the honor of being your Parent Involvement Coordinator for Long County Schools. I look forward to working with you and creating new ways for our school, student body, families and communities to work together.
I am available as a resource person, an advocate in conferences and other school meetings. I will be able to provide suggestions, strategies, materials, and ideas to assist individual students. We will have monthly newsletters packed with suggestions and tips for parents. We will also develop and have mini workshops that will assist in learning basic computer skills, test taking tips, and other drill and practice strategies.
I can be reached Monday – Friday in my office which is located in the main high school building and if needed on weekends. We are developing a resource center that will be available to parents and students to find educational materials and supplies. You will be notified of upcoming events, activities and programs relating to school and the community.
It is most important that we work and grow together………..
I look forward to participating in activities and building relationships with each and everyone of you because at the end of the day, with all of us (teachers, administrators, community support, faith based support, businesses, volunteers) everyone working together our children will succeed and become the responsible, educated adults and parents that you their parents have raised them to be.
