Meet our Parent Liaison, Mrs. Josephine Charlton My name is Josephine Charlton. I am the school-based parent liaison at Tulip Grove Elementary School.

Volunteer! Becoming a volunteer is a win win for all
Communication is essential. Be sure to check your child's backpack on a nightly basis. Look for our bi-monthly newsletters as well as flyers with important information for upcoming parent nights. Remember our website is an important communication tool. Email links are available on the website to contact your child's teacher.
Participation. Your attendance at PTA meetings, parents' nights, and family-fun nights are important. This keeps you "in-the-know."
Visit. At Tulip Grove we have an "open door policy". You are welcomed to visit your child's classroom any day. Just stop by the main office to obtain a visitor's pass. (Remember you are visiting. If you would like to meet with the teacher, please schedule an appointment.)
