There’s something new out there that students may not be happy about. Parents of Osceola Fundamental students are very involved, and are always looking for new ways to stay on top of their kids, especially their school work. To solve this problem, the district’s Office of Strategic Partnerships have created a Family Engagement Mobile App. Parents now can download this app on their phones, to keep them more engaged with their kids and their school work. The “Family Mobile App will provide parents the ability to extend classroom opportunities and family engagement tips”, according to the Osceola Fundamental website. The Family Mobile app also provides tips and opportunities and parent “How to” videos. In addition to the videos, the Family Engagement Mobile App also provides information about parent’s workshop schedules. The app also includes parent peer support and information that will support student learning and improvement.
