What's an FCOC?

The Family and Community Outreach Coordinator (FCOC) used to be called the Parent Partner. Every school has an FCOC, and he or she is there to help connect you to your school by providing programs, information, resources, and support. The activities your FCOC promotes are designed to promote communication between the school and students' families. The success of your child's education is heavily influenced by your involvement in your child's school. The FCOC is there to make sure you have everything you need to be actively involved.
