The Parent Involvement Partnership (PIP) is different
from traditional Parent Associations in that our main goal is to provide a home/school connection for our families, using
social and educational opportunities. All families are automatic members of the PIP – there are no membership fees.
PIP supports its mission by communicating opportunities to families
throughout the year. These opportunities are in four major areas: Studio Support, Event Planning, Staff Appreciations and
Family Fundraising.
Families are also encouraged
to attend PIP Educational workshops which take place the first Tuesday of each month at 7:00 pm, at the school, or other designated
location. Different educational topics are discussed each month utilizing both staff and outside speakers. DVD's of each workshops
are also available for purchase for $5.
PIP information is communicated
through the information board at the entrance of the school, by e-mail, through the monthly newsletter, and in the PIP Connection
binder located at the Curved Desk. You may contact members of the PIP Council for any questions or ideas you might have at pip@shiningminds.com.
