District Parent Groups

Printer-friendly versionPrinter-friendly version



Each district and jurisdiction (province, state, country) may have legislation that governs what parent groups may and/or must be formed. Some are posted on the Parent 2.0 wiki. You will need to discover what parent groups function at your school or district.

Here’s why you need to know.

  • The parent groups may have rights and responsibilities embodied in the legislation that will impact how the Portal is developed and/or deployed.
  • There may be school or district policies that describe how parent groups are supported.
  • There may be different kinds of parent groups functioning at school and district levels and you will need to know how they need to be involved in developing and supporting the Portal.

This information will be helpful when you deal with issues such as ownership and governance.
