ABOUT DORMAN ELEMENTARY

Principal''s Welcome

 

Dear Parents,

 

    Dorman School feels strongly that a relationship with parents helps improve a student's academic achievement and that the school and parents can build and develop a partnership to help children achieve this goal.

 

          Students served under Title 1 (a federal program that provides funds to improve academic achievement) must review, sign and return the School/Parent Compacts.  All Dorman students are served under Title 1.

 

          This School/Parent compact outlines what everyone's responsibility is to ensure that your child/children succeed.  The school has a responsibility, the child has a responsibility and the parent has a responsibility.  We all need to work together; the compact helps that happen.  Review with your child/children the commitment page of the School/Parent compact, sign and return it to school.  If you would like a copy for yourself please let us know. 

 

 

Sincerely,

 

 

Rhonda Lewis

Principal
