Meet Our Parent Coordinator

A parent coordinator bridges the gap between families and schools to foster engagement and resolve conflicts. Parent coordinators work under the principal to drive community involvement and assist families. Our Parent Coordinator, Ms. Blair, works to create a welcoming environment for families. She connects parents with Parent-Teacher Associations (PTAs/PAs), School Leadership Teams (SLTs), and community groups, and organizes parent workshops and events.
