Recognizing the important role that parents have in students being successful, we are increasing the services available to our parents in PISD. We are very excited about the parent education and training workshops that will be offered throughout 2007-2008 and about the expanded support services for parents. We strongly believe that a sincere commitment to working as a team with parents, students, PISD staff and community resources will ensure the overall success of each of our students.
