Welcome to the new Amphitheater Public Schools website platform

Our new websites are designed to highlight the District and our schools and provide families and staff with the information they need.

While we are excited to launch the new sites, the project does come with a few potential (and temporary) issues. We request your patience and assistance as we continue to refine the pages on each site.

If you need information urgently and can’t locate it on the website or see an error, please email answers@amphi.com, and we will respond and address the concern as quickly as possible, typically the same day or within 24 hours.

For non-urgent help or to provide suggestions or feedback, please copy/paste this link to submit a feedback form: https://forms.office.com/r/qAtdJ18ZhR.

We welcome your input and appreciate your patience and feedback as we continue refining the website throughout the summer. Your ideas will help us make our sites more useful for everyone.

Title 1 School Parent Involvement Plan

Lulu Walker Elementary School believes parent involvement is a vital component of a successful Title I program. Parent involvement shall include, but not be limited to, participation by parents in school activities and programs, volunteering in the schools, and by the school providing parents with training and materials to help their child’s learning both in the home and the school.

The following goals will help to build a partnership between the home and school:

  1. The Title 1 staff will inform parents of the student selection criteria for participation in the Title 1 program.
  2. The Title 1 staff will conduct annual parent meetings to explain the Title I program.
  3. The Title 1 staff will consult with parents on a regular basis to provide parents with opportunities to make recommendations for changes and improvements in the program.
  4. School personnel will respond to parent recommendations in a timely manner, within 24 hours.
  5. School personnel will provide opportunities for the participation of parents with limited English proficiency or with disabilities in a language and form that parents will understand.

 Lulu Walker Elementary School will ensure that parents participate through selected activities such as:

  • conducting parent/teacher conferences;
  • providing student progress reports regularly;
  • sponsoring parent/family curriculum nights;
  • distributing parent newsletters;
  • creating teacher web pages, school web pages and district web pages;
  • using class DOJO school wide to communicate to parents;
  • utilizing school parent compacts;
  • soliciting parent input through questionnaires or surveys;
  • responding to parent recommendations in a timely manner;
  • arranging classroom visitations;
  • publishing and explaining school performance profiles;
  • delivering individual student assessment results in a timely manner;
  • describing and explaining the curriculum;
  • discussing the forms of academic assessment used to measure student progress
  • explaining the proficiency levels students are expected to meet;
  • providing parents opportunities to volunteer on campus in classrooms and library.

    • Title I schools must notify parents/guardians of their right to receive certain information.
    • Parents Right to Know (from ESEA amended by ESSA, Section 1112(e) (A) and (B))

    Parents may request and have the right to know information regarding the professional qualifications of the student’s classroom teacher including the following:

    Whether the student’s teacher -

    • has met State qualifications and licensing criteria for the grade levels and subject areas in which the teacher provides instruction;
    • is teaching under emergency or another provisional status through which State qualification or licensing criteria have been waived; and
    • is teaching in the field of discipline of the certification of the teacher.
       

    Parents may also ask if the child is provided services by paraprofessionals and, if so, the paraprofessional’s qualifications.

    Title I Schools must also notify parents timely that the student has been assigned or has been taught for 4 or more consecutive weeks by a teacher who does not meet applicable State certification or licensure requirements at the grade level and subject area in which the teacher has been assigned.  

    • If you would like to request this information, please contact the office at (520) 696-6518.
