Freeport Public Schools hosted its first parent town hall of the school year through virtual means. Superintendent of Schools Fia Davis, along with other district administrators and representatives from the district’s Parent-Teacher Association, answered questions from families and provided other school-related information.
The town hall was hosted on Oct. 19, and gave families an opportunity to directly engage with district leadership and be up-to-date on matters impacting individual schools or the entire district. This event is the district’s latest attempt to provide greater transparency and communication to parents—something that was a common complaint of many community members last school year.
“Open communication and strong partnerships with our families are essential to student success,” Davis said in district press release. “Our first virtual parent town hall provided an opportunity to share important district updates, hear directly from parents and answer their questions. We value our families’ perspectives and remain committed to working together to ensure every Freeport student has the support and opportunities needed to thrive.”
During the meeting, Davis shared updates on several district academic and extracurricular programs, priorities and initiatives. Parents were encouraged to ask questions, share concerns and seek clarification on topics important to their families and the broader school community.
The virtual town hall provided a valuable opportunity to foster open dialogue and strengthen relationships. The Freeport school district says it remains committed to maintaining open lines of communication and creating meaningful opportunities for families to stay informed, share their perspectives and participate in their children’s academic journey.
