Back to School


A new school year is here!


Whether your family is returning to a familiar school, beginning somewhere new, or continuing your homeschool journey, this season brings fresh opportunities and usually, a little adjustment.


Many CCSD schools have new start and dismissal times this year. As families settle into earlier mornings, new transportation schedules, homework and extracurricular activities, remember that routines take time. Give yourself, and your children, grace as everyone finds a new rhythm.


At Power2Parent, we believe parents are the most important influence in a child’s life. As the school year begins, stay engaged, ask questions and keep communication open with your child and their teachers. Your involvement matters.


CONSTITUTION BOWL RETURNS


We’re excited to bring back the Power2Parent Constitution Bowl in February!


This engaging civic education program gives students the opportunity to study the founding principles of our nation, strengthen their understanding of the Constitution and compete alongside their classmates.


More information about participating schools, teams and registration will be coming soon. If you are a parent, teacher or school leader interested in participating, we would love to hear from you.

27 STUDENTS RECEIVED EMPOWERED CHOICE SCHOLARSHIPS


We are thrilled to share that 27 students have now received support through our EmpowerED Choice Scholarship program!


These scholarships give families greater freedom to choose an educational environment where their children can learn, grow and thrive. We are deeply grateful to the donors who make these opportunities possible.


Every scholarship represents more than financial assistance. It represents a family being empowered to make the educational decision that is best for their child.


As backpacks are packed and classrooms reopen, we are reminded that education is about much more than grades. It is about preparing the next generation to think courageously, understand their rights and responsibilities, and become engaged citizens.


Power2Parent will continue standing beside families throughout the year, providing resources, creating opportunities and defending the vital role of parents.


Here’s to a wonderful school year!
