Join The Title I P/FAC
The Title I Parent and Family Advisory Council, called P/FAC, is a group of parents, teachers, administrators, and community members that meet annually to support and promote Title I programs and activities. The Loyalsock Township School District invites you to participate in P/FAC.
Please email tdeitric@loyalsocklancers.org if you would like to be a member of The P/FAC ~ More information to come!
Parents and Family members are invited to join the Parent/Family Advisory Council meetings to share in making decisions about the Title I programming in our school. Parent and Family input is very important, and helps to shape the content of our family events, annual meeting, policies, home-school compact, use of parent/Family programs budget, and professional development for our staff.

WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO RAISE YOUR STAR?
Pennsylvania’s Early Learning Resource Centers (ELRCs) provide a single point-of-contact for families, early learning service providers, and communities to gain information and access services that support high-quality child care and early learning programs. ELRCs consolidate the current work of Child Care Information Service Agencies and the Regional Keys to create an enhanced resource and referral system for communities seeking early learning services and supports.
Whether you are a parent or guardian looking for child care or you are an early learning professional looking for professional development opportunity or technical assistance for your program, your ELRC can help you understand the quality of a child care/early learning program and help you help children in Pennsylvania grow! For a young child, everything is a learning experience. An early learning program, such as child care or Head Start, can affect how well children do in kindergarten, school, and in life.
Children who attend a quality child care / early learning program come to kindergarten ready to learn, do better in school, and are more likely to graduate high school, attend college, and get good jobs.
