Our popular Parent and Family Advocacy & Support
Training (PFAST) or Latino PFAST (LPFAST in Spanish) workshop series
starts this week on Tuesday, April 1st at Holton through the
DPS Family Academy at 6:00pm. Dinner and Childcare are
included. Flyers and registration for both Spanish and English are
attached. Please share with others you know.
PFAST and LPFAST help families (Parents, Guardians, Grandparents,
Foster Parents) learn to better navigate our public schools. Families
(PK-12) from every walk of life benefit from this workshop series. Topics
include testing, Common Core, Report Cards, School Communication Techniques,
AIG/Gifted Education, Special Needs & IEPs, Having an Effective
Parent-Teacher conference, School Choice and more. School and
Community Professionals and community leaders also take PFAST to learn more
about how schools work, learn from parent perspectives, or to support their own
children.
Families who complete LPFAST and PFAST this Spring will be
eligible to participate in a new Parent Leadership certification program this
fall through a grant we have received.
