Parent Involvement
Office of Family and Student Services
At Opportunity Charter School, families are always welcome as valued partners in their children�s education. To that end, we created the Office of Family and Student Services to assist families with whatever they need to help their children progress at OCS. Parents and guardians participate in the Sciences and the Humanities Back to School Nights, where they work on hands-on activities just like their children. We have parent-teacher conferences twice a year and encourage staff to communicate regularly with parents for both positive and negative reports. Parents and guardians are signed-up on our school database called Teacherease. Through this system, they can monitor their child�s academic progress on a regular basis. This office, in partnership with the Guidance Office and the Clinical Office, also provides workshops for families. A full-time Supervisor of Parent and Student Services and a Parent Coordinator are available to assist parents in working with the school to support their children. They also conduct community outreach to encourage local businesses and organizations to support OCS. OCS has had an active Parent Teacher Association, which meets monthly to discuss school issues, plan workshops, and parent involvement activities.
