Center for Safer Schools Launches Parent Engagement Committee
"The Center for Safer Schools (CFSS) is launching a Parent Engagement Committee to elevate parents’ voice in their children’s safety in schools.
The committee will be a 24-member advisory board made up of three (two from school districts and one from charter schools) parents/guardians from the state’s eight educational regions to ensure diverse geographical participation. Members will share their aspirations for and discuss challenges within the K-12 education system, helping to put together recommendations for elected officials and policymakers in North Carolina, and provide direct input to CFSS Executive Director Karen W. Fairley.
'What happens in the community goes over into the schools, and it all starts at home,' said Fairley. 'It’s vital for parents to be engaged in matters of school safety, and it’s the Center’s responsibility to keep them as informed as possible.'"
