Families
Parent involvement
Families are partners in their child's education. The Confluence Classroom Partnership brings home and school together around every learner.
The Confluence Classroom Partnership
Where home and school flow together
A confluence is where different streams come together. Here, those streams meet around the learner.
The Confluence Classroom Partnership creates a relational bridge between home and school, empowering Parent Ambassadors to cultivate belonging, strengthen communication, coordinate meaningful family engagement, and connect the gifts of our families to the life and learning of each classroom.
