Empower Rocketship Education believes parents are the only way to create long-lasting change to our public education system. Rocketship parents work with organizations like People Acting for Community Together (PACT) and Parents for Great Schools (PGS) to advocate for more high-quality school options for their community. |

Rocketship believes that parents are critical participants in the academic success of their student. Classroom teachers conduct at least one home visit in the first semester, three parent conferences throughout the year, and make formal contacts with each Rocketeer parent twice per month. Additionally, Rocketship conducts monthly Community Meetings which have over 70 percent parent attendance, and conducts multiple family activities throughout the year. Through this significant outreach and community building, Rocketship not only provides an individualized classroom experience for students, but also creates a community that encourages and focuses on parent participation and empowerment as a critical element of a Rocketeer’s success. |
