Get Involved
School Site Council
The School Site Council is a decision-making body made up of parents, community representatives, and school staff members. The School Site Council's primary responsibility is to oversee the funds the school receives under the School Improvement Program (SIP) act. The funds are designed to improve student performance as measured by standardized tests, the District's State & Federal Program, and classroom performance. The Council meets once a month and dates will be announced at the beginning of the school year. If you are interested in joining the School Site Council, please contact the front office.
Volunteer at Lairon
Helping in the classroom or around the school is a great way to stay involved and support our Lairon College Preparatory Academy community. To volunteer in the classroom, please contact the office to add your name to a list that is provided to the district. Fingerprints will be required in order to volunteer in a classroom. Once you have been cleared, a schedule can be arranged with the teacher of your child. To volunteer around the school, please contact the front office.
