A School-parent Compact is an agreement between parents, students, and teachers. It explains how teachers and families will work together to make sure students are meeting expectations.
The parents, students and staff of Rural Hall Elementary developed this School-Parent Compact. Teachers included strategies for student success, parents made suggestions to help clarify information, and students told us what would help them learn. Each year a meeting is held to review the compact with families.
