NAAPID - Parent Involvement Day - February 10, 2014 - All Parents Invited

January 29, 2014

Dear Mitchell Parents,

You are invited to be a part of Mitchell’s plans as we observe National African American Parent Involvement Day (NAAPID) on Monday, February 10, 2014.  This letter communicates information about our plans for NAAPID.

What is NAAPID?

NAAPID - "Take Your Child to School/Visit Your Child in School" Day

NAAPID is a national call to action to get all parents, but particularly those of African American children, more involved in the education of their children. It is expected that this national observation will open up dialogue among teachers, parents, and students, which will lead to a more conducive learning environment.

During NAAPID, the Mitchell staff hopes parents will come to school to be a part of the classroom for at least a short period.  In fact, all parents are invited to be a part of day as long as they can stay.

Also, please plan to visit the hospitality table the Mitchell staff has set up in the teacher's lounge to enjoy some refreshments while you are here!

I hope that you will make time in your busy schedule to be a part of this very important day. 

Sincerely,

Kevin Karr (and the Mitchell School staff)
