Parent & Family Engagement

We believe our relationship with parents begins the moment you first consider Santa Fe Indian School and extends beyond your child's graduation. The SFIS experience is one that is shared both by parents and their children therefore it is our goal to keep parents well-informed to stay involved.

SFIS is committed to work in cooperation with parents and community members to ensure effective parent and family involvement as a way to improve the academic achievement of SFIS students. The SFIS Parent-Student-Staff Compact is a part of our annual registration and outlines how parents, staff, and students will share the responsibility and develop a partnership to help all students improve their academic achievement.

Parents are a vital part of the SFIS community and are always welcome to attend athletic events, concerts, dances and presentations in addition to many campus events throughout the year.

Partnership for Student Success Initiative

The Partnership for Student Success Initiative is in place for the Family Engagement Coordinator to serve as a liaison for the school to partner with families and communities by providing opportunities within our school community that engage and empower SFIS parents to take an active role in their children's education.

The Family Engagement Coordinator works with school programs to create, organize, plan, and implement engagement opportunities for parents. Our goal is to strengthen and engage partnerships with parents by implementing classes, workshops, events, activities, and outreach programs to maximize family engagement.
