Parent partnership and involvement as Parent Ambassadors: Parent Ambassadors are instrumental to expanding the reach of your school in the community and growing the enrollment because they increase our reach in our targeted neighborhoods, improves our manpower, and provides authenticity. Parent involvement includes (but not limited to):
Social Events
Hosting a Tour
Presenting at Public Events
Mentoring New Families
3. Dedicating space in the school building, website, and time during school based events for enrollment related activities. Enrollment activities should become embedded in the day to day offering of the school.
