Caring Adults Responsible Educators

Current President – Teresa Shargril

We hold a monthly CARE meetings the 2nd Tuesday of every month. We encourage all parents to join us.  When parents are actively involved in their children’s education the children are more likely to:

  • Earn better grades
  • Have higher test scores
  • Attend school regularly
  • Have better social skills
  • Show improved behavior
  • Have a positive attitude toward school
  • Complete homework assignments
  • Graduate and continue their education

As parents, we can serve many different roles in the educational process.  We serve as advocates for our children, volunteers, fundraisers,  and help at home.  Parent involvement in education has a positive effect at all grade levels.  The more parents participating the better for student achievement.
