Dear Families,
This guide was created by Families, Worcester Public Schools and Community Agencies for families who are learning about the Worcester Public Schools System. Families often don’t comprehend how the school system works and desire to have a better understanding. Primarily, the handbook is the most complete resource for the district. Learning about the various programs, services and agencies with in a school district can be overwhelming. Our goal is to empower families to become more knowledgeable and thus be involved in their child’s education. Research has shown that involved families ensure greater success in their child’s education.
You, as a parent have options within Worcester Public Schools. Your involvement can make a difference. We believe greater communication among families, students, teachers, administrators and community partners working together to achieve a common purpose. Delivering on High Expectations and Outstanding Results for All Students. We are pleased to provide the Family Guide as a supplement to the Policies Handbook to learn about the various schools, programs and community organizations that are available to help support your child’s education and family needs. Additional details about each school can be found at each school’s website.
This guide is available on our website.
