Parental involvement is actively sought by the Thomasville City School District. By enrolling your child in the system, you are promising to provide the necessary support and home environment for a positive educational experience. As a parent/guardian of a Thomasville City Schools student, I support and pledge the following:
1. An early commitment to attendance and punctuality helps develop a sense of responsibility that can transcend a lifetime. Therefore, I pledge to fully support the school’s attendance and punctuality policies.
-
My child will attend school every day possible.
-
My child will be punctual and will not be signed out unnecessarily.
-
I will provide timely, written excuses for all absences.
-
When possible, I will provide written notification of any impending absences.
2. I understand that a parent’s role is critical to the educational process. I pledge to fulfill this responsibility in the following ways:

My child will complete all assigned forms, including homework.

I will attend all conferences requested by the school.
-
I will sign and return all progress reports and report cards if requested.

3. As a parent, I understand that my child’s cooperation and behavior is critical to his/her academic progress. Therefore, I pledge the following:
-
I will require my child to show respect for faculty, staff, property and students.
