- Distribute important information to you, including your student's academic progress (report cards) and attendance records.
- Respond appropriately in the event of an emergency.
- Provide and evaluate student supports such as language services.
- Honor the racial/ethnic and/or cultural identity of students.
- Pursue and distribute resources to strengthen instruction for all students.

How do I register medications or care plans?

Does SPS offer child care?

What will happen if my student does not speak English?
