Ways to Get Involved
SPPS District-Wide Family Engagement Plan
Just like a space launch needs engineers, mathematicians, and physicists to work together to send astronauts into space, families, schools, and communities need to work together for children’s learning to take off. Our district has initiated opportunities outlined in this plan, so our staff can work in partnership with families to build strong relationships to help their students succeed
