Family and School Connections

Family involvement is one of the most important pillars of success in any school district. In the Wilkinsburg School District, we want families to know we’re for their children – and them. We realize parents and guardians may notice things before teachers or counselors do – and we want families to feel comfortable sharing their concerns with us. That’s why we continually work to strengthen our bond with the families we serve.

The Wilkinsburg School District puts an emphasis on clear communication with families. We regularly communicate with families via our website, social media, newsletters, school board meetings, and through the media. We also host and participate in community engagement events, ensuring the conversation never stops.

By creating an open and honest dialogue, we believe we can extend the district community to lift up all of the students and families we serve. This school district is a key part Wilkinsburg’s foundation, one that will continue to build upon. Our work will allow us to remove barriers, address challenges, and celebrate success – so that we can support students more effectively.
