PTO Membership

PTO dues are $5.00 per parent. Dues will go to support Frink's PBS program as well as other things that the PTO might vote on to help fund the school. The more money Frink has to put into this program, the more incentives Frink will have to offer our kids in the Positive Behavior Support Program. We hope that you will help support your child and E. B. Frink Middle School through the PTO.

 

Parental Involvement Policy

 Frink Middle School believes that the education of children is a shared and joint effort between parents and the school. Parents are their child’s first teacher and Frink believes there is a strong correlation between parent involvement and student success. This Parental Involvement Policy has been developed jointly between Frink faculty and parents, and it describes Frink’s expectations for parental involvement in Title I schools.

At the beginning of each school year, Frink will hold meetings at which parents are informed about Title I, the requirements of Title I and their right to be involved. Parents will also be informed of the district-wide Title I parent meetings held annually about the NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND ACT OF 2001 and Title I – Part A is given.

Frink Middle School will assist parents in understanding North Carolina’s academic content standards, North Carolina’s academic assessments, and how to monitor a child’s progress and work with educators to improve the achievement of their child. We will provide materials and training as needed to assist parents. Teachers, counselors, principals and other staff value the contributions of parents and will reach out to communicate with and work with parents as equal partners in the education of their child.

Information related to school and parent programs, meetings and other activities are sent to the parents in a format and, to the extent practicable, in a language the parents understand. Parents with limited English proficiency, parents with disabilities, and parents of migratory children are provided opportunities for full participation in all parent involvement activities.

Frink believes that School-Parent Compacts are an integral part of a comprehensive parent-involvement policy. School-Parent Compacts outline how parents, the entire school staff, and students will share the responsibility for improved student academic achievement and the means by which the school and parents will build and develop a partnership to help children achieve the State’s high standards. Parent-teacher conferences are held at least annually during which the Compact is discussed and signed by all parties.
