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

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 who are not able to attend the Planning Meeting have the opportunity to review draft documents and provide input during the draft document review period.  

Written communication is available to all parents in both
English and Spanish with additional languages available upon
request. In addition, interpreters are available for parent teacher
conferences, family workshops, and individual parent
meetings
Parents may request a meeting by contacting the school office

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.

Rock Springs Elementary will:

• Small Group Sessions: We focus on students' individual needs through small group activities to help every child get the support they need to do well.

Proactive Academic Support

• iReady: We use iReady assessments in reading and math to learn about each student's progress. These tools help us find areas where students might need extra help, so we can offer support quickly.    

It is a plan that describes how our school will provide opportunities to improve family engagement that will support student learning at school and at home. All students and their families are invited and encouraged to fully participate in the opportunities described in this plan. The school will provide information and as many opportunities as possible for the participation of all family members. 

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 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
• Reviewed and revised throughout the year via Parent Square, website, Parent-Teacher conferences, newsletters, PTA meetings, postcards, and Building Parent Capacity activities.
