National Family Engagement Month
November is National Family Engagement Month — a time to recognize the essential role families play in supporting student learning and success. At Prince George’s County Public Schools, we’re committed to helping families stay informed, connected, and involved all year long.

Become a Volunteer!
Research shows that when parents get engaged in their child’s education, the motivation, behavior and grades of every child in class is positively impacted. Volunteering is a great way to engage!
All volunteers are required to complete the online volunteer application annually.
