Please know that Crenshaw County Board of Education will host its Title I Parent Meeting on June 19, 2013, at 9:30 AM, in the Board Room of the Joe R. Sport Administrative Building. This meeting will last approximately one hour.

There are four topics that are the scope of this meeting.

Another topic is to explain the purpose of the one percent of Title I funds that is set aside for parental involvement and parental involvement activities. Mr. Wilkes will also discuss the Crenshaw County Board of Education’s Parental Involvement Plan. The revision of school-parent compacts will be the final topic of discussion.
