JCCS Family Engagement

November is National Family Engagement Month!
November is National Family Engagement Month!
this month, we celebrate the important partnership between families and schools in supporting student learning and success.
At JCCS, we recognize that families are a child's first and most important teachers. When families, schools, and communities work together, students achieve more, attend school more regularly, and feel more connected and supported.
We encourage our families to stay engaged in their child's education -- whether by attending school events, volunteering, reviewing progress reports, or simply taking time each day to talk about school. Every interaction makes a difference!
Together, we are creating a strong foundation for student success -- one built on collaboration, communication, and care. Thank you to all our families for your ongoing partnership and support!
Get Involved!
Here are a few ways families can stay engaged and connected:
- Attend family nights or school events: check the upcoming events for your child's school.
- Check your child's progress through the parent portal (Infinite Campus) and by communicating regularly with your child's teachers.
- Volunteer: Learn more about how you can volunteer at a JCCS School by visiting https://jasper.k12.ga.us/volunteer
- Share your ideas! Your feedback helps shape district programs and initiatives that benefit all students.

Novel Effect: Read Aloud Books
Did you know that the best way to help your child become a better reader is to read with them? Novel Effect is an app that follows along as you read aloud and adds interactive music and sound effects. Kids love it (even those who don't like to read)! The app can be downloaded for free on Apple AppStore and on GooglePlay.
Storytime with Ryan and Craig
On their YouTube channel, Ryan and Craig sing catchy songs and read stories -- with a little comedy added!
