The Plan...The Promise 2025-2026

The Family and Community Engagement Plan and all other Title I information are available on our school’s website at https://meadowcreekes.gcpsk12.org/  under the Title I Section. Families can find paper copies of this Family and Community Engagement Plan in our Family Engagement Center. The plan is also available on our school’s  Google page.

 

 

It is reviewed and revised at least annually during the Planning Meeting in the spring. All feedback forms from the Planning Meeting are submitted to the Office of Federal Programs for review.  Families unable to attend the Planning Meeting can review draft documents and provide input during the draft document review period.

 

Meaningful, two-way communication between teachers and families will improve academic success for students. Therefore, Meadowcreek Elementary provides opportunities for regular meetings with our families to participate in two-way communication relating to the education of their child, including Parent/Teacher meetings, website communication, ParentSquare, Parent Center Virtual Meetings, and Friday Folders, etc. All communication is translated/interpreted to the extent possible, and meetings are held in various formats. We will make every attempt to eliminate barriers such as transportation and childcare.

 Parents may communicate with the Parent Instructional Coordinator (Ms. Judy Pena-Perez) to assist in scheduling a meeting with their child’s teacher at a convenient time. 

Parents can call the Family Center at (770)  381-4248 or email Ms. Peña-Pérez at Judy.Pena.Perez@gcpsk12.org.

 

 

 

The Blueprint for the Future is the strategic plan for Gwinnett County Public Schools. This plan is organized into four strategic priorities, each with three specific goals. To ensure success, these goals have clear objectives and Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to track and measure progress. Each year, schools review their data to identify areas for growth and set long-term goals to improve them. This information is used to create a Local School Plan for Improvement (LSPI) aligned to the district's priorities. School staff, families, and community members participate in providing input for the LSPI. Families can easily access the latest strategic plan on the Gwinnett County Public Schools' website. 

 

We will provide all students with high-quality curriculum and instruction in a supportive and effective learning environment to meet high academic standards.

It is a written agreement that outlines how the school, the students, and the family will work together to ensure your child’s academic success. An effective School-Family Promise contains the following elements:

• Clear learning goals that are linked to the school’s improvement plan
• Specific skills students will learn during the year 
• Strategies that staff, families, and students will use to improve student learning
• Ways to extend learning at home
• Methods that teachers and family members will use to communicate about student progress
• Opportunities for family members to observe and participate in the classroom
• Jointly developed by families, school staff, students, community business partners, and other stakeholders during our Planning Meeting
• It’s reviewed and revised throughout the year. The School-Family Promise is reviewed twice a year during our Parent-Teacher Conferences, workshops, and other meetings throughout the school year, and new families review it during registration.

• ENGAGING AND EMPOWERING FAMILIES WITH…

 

• Title I Program Information: Program information is available during the Title I Planning Meeting in the spring and Annual Parent Meetings in the fall, on the school website, and in the Parent Center.
• Curriculum Information: Knowing what your child is learning at school is important. We will keep you informed throughout the year about what your child is learning during parent meetings, conferences, Google page, and on our school website. 
• Student Progress Monitoring: The Parent Portal is an online resource that allows families to view grades, attendance, schedules, assessments, and their child’s results, course history, and much more. Monitoring your child’s progress in school is an important way to be engaged. 
• Parent Resources: We have many resources available for checkout to use at home with your child. We also host several parent workshops to empower you as you work with your child at home.
• Staff Training: We will train our staff to effectively communicate with you. Your input on how we train our staff is valuable. 
• Communication: We will communicate, to the extent feasible, all information with you in a language and format you understand.  Whenever possible, we will provide interpreters during parent workshops and academic events. Translations are available for most documents. 
• Transition Support: Entering a new school can be scary for both students and families. We will host events to make sure both you and your child are aware of what is expected and how you can prepare as your child transitions to a new school level, college, and career.
