Our Parent Coordinator
2026-2027
Welcome, P176X Families! My name is Jovana Cayruth-Booker, and I am excited to introduce myself as your Parent Coordinator at P176X @ Truman High School! I am honored to join the P176X community and look forward to building positive relationships with our students, families, staff, and school community. As your Parent Coordinator, I am here to be a resource, advocate, and point of connection for families. My goal is to help ensure that every parent and caregiver feels welcomed, informed, heard, and supported. I will work to connect families with school resources, programs, events, workshops, and community services while also creating opportunities for parents to be actively involved in their child’s education and school experience. Here’s to a wonderful school year filled with connection, communication, collaboration, and opportunities for our students to thrive!

Our Community Associate
Welcome, parents and guardians!

I am your Community Associate, 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
