The Plan The Promise

The Family and Community Engagement Plan and all other Title I information are available on our school's website at https://lovines.gcpsk12.org/ under the Title I section.  Families can also find paper copies of this Family and Community Plan in our Parent Center.  

It is reviewed and revised at least annually during the spring Planning Meeting. All feedback forms from the Planning Meeting are submitted to the Office of Federal Programs for review.  Families who are unable to attend the Planning Meeting will have the opportunity to review the draft documents and provide input during the draft document review period. 

 

We at Lovin communicate with parents in a family-friendly format by providing communication in languages parents understand. School documents are sent home, and interpreters are provided at family events when applicable. Newsletters, flyers, social media, and the school website are also used as a communication tool to reach our families.
If you would like to discuss your child’s progress, meetings must be scheduled in advance and at a time when class is not in session. Staff hours are 7:30 am -3:15 pm. Calls and emails to teachers will be returned within 24 hours. If you have an immediate concern, please ask to speak with an administrator.

 

The Blueprint for the Future is the strategic plan for Gwinnett County Public Schools. This plan is organized into four strategic priorities, each with three specific goals. To ensure success, these goals have clear objectives and Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to track and measure progress. Each year, schools review their data to identify areas for growth and set long-term goals to improve them. This information is used to create a Local School Plan for Improvement (LSPI) aligned to the district's priorities. School staff, families, and community members participate in providing input for the LSPI. Families can easily access the latest strategic plan on the Gwinnett County Public Schools' website.
  

Lovin Elementary will work to focus on the four strategic priorities that create a sense of belonging for all students. We will be connected and responsive to students by providing intentional, differentiated instruction. We will continue to build an exemplary social and emotional learning (SEL) program that supports our students and provides resources for staff, students, and families.

Our continued goal at Lovin Elementary School is to use a Multi-Tiered System of Support to provide all students with a high-quality curriculum and instruction in a supportive and effective learning environment to meet high academic standards.

It is a plan that describes how our school will provide opportunities to improve family engagement that will support student learning at school and at home. All students and their families are invited and encouraged to fully participate in the opportunities described in this plan. The school will provide information and as many opportunities as possible for the participation of all family members.  

• Title I Program Information: Program information is available during the Title I Planning Meeting in the spring and Annual Parent Meetings in the fall, on the school website, and in the Parent Center.
• Curriculum Information: Knowing what your child is learning at school is important. We will keep you informed throughout the year about what your child is learning during parent meetings, conferences, and on our school website. 
• Student Progress Monitoring: The Parent Portal is an online resource that allows families to view grades, attendance, schedules, assessments, and their child’s results, course history, and much more. Monitoring your child’s progress in school is an important way to be engaged. 
• Parent Resources: We have many resources available for checkout to use at home with your child. We also host several parent workshops to empower you as you work with your child at home.
• Staff Training: We will train our staff to communicate effectively with you. Your input on how we train our staff is valuable. 
• Communication: We will communicate, to the extent feasible, all information with you in a language and format you understand.  Whenever possible, we will provide interpreters during parent workshops and academic events. Translation is available for most documents. 
• Transition Support: Entering a new school can be scary for both students and families. We will host events to make sure both you and your child are aware of what is expected and how you can prepare as your child transitions to a new school level, college, and career. 

It is a written agreement that outlines how the school, the students, and the family will work together to ensure your child’s academic success. An effective School-Family Promise contains the following elements:

 Lovin will…

• Provide strategies that families can use at home to improve student achievement in reading and math.
• Provide parents with resources available for checkout in the Parent Center to support student learning.
• Create ongoing opportunities for two-way communication with families and students to strengthen achievement
