Default Image - woodbury
Woodbury is excited to announce we have created a staff position designed to meet the needs of our culturally and linguistically diverse student and parent population. Mrs. Teresa Yau and Ms. Jessica Mossbarger will serve as our Parent Outreach Coordinators. The purpose of our Parent Outreach Coordinators is to Connect, Communicate, Acculturate, and Educate (CCAE) the students and parents who are new to Woodbury Elementary.
 
Specifically, the intent is to:
  • create awareness about parent resources among teachers, parents, and Woodbury community.
  • establish home-school connections for parents.
  • create cultural awareness and appreciation among all students and their families.
  • serve as a liaison between Woodbury and IUSD's Language Development Program.
  • provide parent outreach and engagement.
  • involve parents in both Woodbury and IUSD activities and resources. Examples- Woodbury PTA, volunteering, support at home, IPSF, etc.
  • design and provide Woodbury parent workshops that address a variety of topics and needs.
  • support teachers with resources for students and parents.
  • identify and develop leadership within cultural and linguistic groups.
It is our goal that this endeavor will make it easier for families to transition into our school and community. If you have any questions, ideas, or would like to be involved in these efforts, please contact Mrs. Yau at teresayau@iusd.org or Ms. Mossbarger at jessicamossbarger@iusd.org. You may also reach them by calling 936-5750.
