Welcome
Letter from the Administrative Team
Welcome to Sky Mountain Charter
SchoolŐs 2011-2012 school year! You have chosen an exciting form of
education for your children—home-based personalized learning. We
trust that this parent manual will be a helpful resource for you that you will
keep handy and refer to throughout this school year.
Sky Mountain Charter School is in
its fifth year of operation, and we are managed by Innovative Education
Management (IEM), a nonprofit public benefit education corporation which has managed a number of parent friendly public charter
schools in California since 1993.
IEM charter schools have a
long history of educational offerings and policies that go above and beyond to
support parent choice in education. This is most evident when you
look at our exhaustive vendor list for curriculum purchases and classes, and
the amount of funds allocated for the development and delivery of each childŐs
educational plan.
Everything we do at Sky Mountain
Charter School is in an effort to support your choices as a parent educator
while endeavoring to make this type of educational model possible. We are
truly excited to continue building a first-rate home-based program in
partnership with families who want the best for their children.
Please do not hesitate to contact
your education specialist (ES) at any time. They are here to assist and support
you. If ,
after contacting your ES, you need additional support, you may contact your
ESŐs advisor. Your commitment to
our school is important and your feedback helps us to strengthen and refine our
program.
We hope this will be a rewarding and
memorable year for you and your family.
Sincerely,
The Sky Mountain Administrative Team
