FOR PARENTS | ps176x

Our Parent Coordinator
Welcome to the 2024-2025 School Year!
My name is Kayla Williams, and I am excited to introduce myself as the new Parent Coordinator at P176x at Truman High School. It has been a pleasure working with your child for the past 5 years as a Paraprofessional supporting them in their classrooms. Although I am new to this position, I am thrilled to be working closer with each of you this school year. As the Parent Coordinator, my role is to serve as a bridge between the school and our families. I am here to ensure that you are well-informed, involved, and empowered to support your child's educational journey. I believe that strong partnerships between parents, teachers, and the school administration are key to creating a positive and supportive learning environment for our students.

Best,
Kayla Williams

Our Family Assistant
Welcome, parents and guardians!

I am your Family Assistant, Mrs. Singleton for P176x at 181 and Truman High School. Working with families on an individualized basis throughout the year allows me to identify family goals and provide the resources necessary. My goal is to assist with the enrollment and registration process, input explanations for student’s absences, create informative flyers or notices for upcoming events and post updates on the Remind App. I assist in identifying special family needs as I work closely with the Pupil Accounting Secretary and the Parent Coordinator. I also maintain and update student records to ensure that all documentation in their file is current. I welcome you and your child to the P176x family. Do not hesitate to reach out to me with any questions.

Be well,
Mrs. Lorene Singleton
Family Assistant
