At Attica USD 511, parents are encouraged to visit and participate in their child’s educational process.  Parent-Teacher conferences occur twice a year; at the end of the first nine weeks and at the end of the third nine weeks.  Conference hours vary to meet the needs of parents and teachers will make special arrangements to meet with all the parents of their students.  These conferences are used to showcase student work and to explain student progress and assessments. 

Parents are invited to visit or volunteer in their child’s classroom and also for field trips, parties, and numerous other activities.  Parents also receive monthly newsletters, monthly school calendars, and other special notices.        

All school activities including conferences, open houses, music programs, and other extra-curricular activities are advertised in the local paper, on the Attica Bulldog Television Channel, and on the Attica USD 511 Web Site. 

Parents and community people serve on all Attica USD 511 committees and councils including site council, technology vocational education committee, and the QPA steering committee.  The district’s site council has been designated with the responsibility of evaluating parent involvement and reporting to the board of education any recommendations for needed improvement.

Parents, students, and teachers are requested to sign a parent/student/teacher compact for each student during August enrollment.  Parents, students, and teachers are encouraged to discuss the compacts during conferences.
