Dear Parents,
 
Thorner is in the process to reconvene the 2020-21 African American Parent Advisory Council (AAPAC).  

The purpose of the AAPAC is to involve and engage the parents/caregivers of identified African-American students in the decision making process, leading to improve the quality of education for African American students. Our aim is to increase learning outcomes and promote an understanding among parents, educators, and others about cultural sensitivity relating to the education of African American students.

The goals of AAPAC are to engage, equip, and empower parents to advocate for the academic success of their children. This work will be driven by three principles: Presence, Purpose, Progress.  The principles will grow success in the following areas; Attendance, Literacy and a decrease in behavior outcomes.

Thorner will hold its first AAPAC meeting on October 6th at 2:30 pm. We cordially invite you to this meeting.  If you are interested in attending this meeting, please fill out the attached form.  The Zoom ID and password will be sent to the emails of those interested.

If you have questions, you can send a Parent Square message to Lisa Barrera or call the principal, Mrs. Scott, at the school at 661-631-5490.
