Parent and Family Engagement

Your involvement makes all the difference. Decades of research—and our own experience—show that when families stay involved, students do better in school and in life.

“When parents talk to their children about school, expect them to do well, help them plan for college or a career, and guide their activities outside of school, their children succeed.”
Florida Department of Education

At Wakulla County Schools, we believe families are our greatest partners. You know your child best—and your voice matters.

Simple ways to stay involved:

  • Get to know your child’s school and teachers

  • Share your child’s strengths, interests, and needs

  • Check on progress reports regularly via Focus Parent Portal

  • Attend school events and parent-teacher conferences

  • Visit the classroom or volunteer when you can

  • Keep the lines of communication open

Working together, we help every child grow with rigor, resiliency, and relevance
