By
May 8, 2017

Parents with students attending any of the Fulton County School District’s Title I schools will get a chance to offer feedback and learn more about programs at a series of meetings Wednesday.

The meetings will be held at Vickery Mill Elementary School, 1201 Alpharetta St. in Roswell. The meetings will be held at 9 a.m. and 6 p.m.

Parents will be given the opportunity to join the district’s Family and Community Engagement Advisory Council and participate in the revision of the district’s Parent and Family Engagement Plan for the 2017-2018 school year.

Spanish interpreters will be provided at the meetings. If other languages are needed, call the Title I Department at 470-254-0200. If you are unable to attend, you may request materials and submit your feedback via email to Kimberly Howard at HowardKim@fultonschools.org
