Parent Empowerment Groups (PEG)
The PTO supports three parent empowerment groups: Hmong, Latino and African American. These groups provide families with a venue to connect with the school community and gain information related to school, and to form connections with each other and the school staff. The groups also serve as a forum to educate and share information that empowers parents to be active and well informed.
