Parent/Guardian Forums
R.J. Grey Junior High School is pleased to offer four Parent/Guardian Forums. Topics chosen for this year are based on parent/guardian feedback and suggestions provided by our faculty as well. We hope the choices meet your specific information needs.
Providing relevant resources and educational support to our families is a top priority. The opportunity to engage in meaningful discussions is always beneficial. The opportunity to learn about some new skills and strategies that can be useful both at school and at home enhances collaboration and trust.
We hope you find these forums another example of our comprehensive effort to provide strong home/school communication.
