Virginia Lake School Certified as Parent Involvement School of Excellence
More than 800 students at Virginia Lake School have one more reason to take pride in their school. The National PTA has certified Virginia Lake as a Parent Involvement School of Excellence. National PTA’s Parent Involvement Schools of Excellence certification program recognizes schools that uphold the highest standards in parent involvement and that help meet parent involvement provisions in the 2001 Elementary and Secondary Education Act.
As part of the certification process, Virginia Lake School formed a team consisting of the principal, teachers, parents, and a representative from the community; completed a self-assessment; and applied for one of two distinctions—Certification of Excellence or Recognition of Commitment—based on the results of their self-assessment. According to team members, the certification is a symbol of parents, staff, and community members working together for the common goal of helping children succeed.
