Monaco Elementary Parent Involvement Compact

In order to achieve high standards of education we must develop and maintain a partnership between parents, students and school personnel. This compact promotes understanding and cooperation by clarifying mutual and separate responsibilities and expectations. We understand that a child’s education will reach its potential only if all in the partnership agree and meet their responsibilities.

Parent/Guardian Agreement
