• To provide multiple methods to communicate important information to parents to keep them informed of programs, curriculum, and academic assessments used to measure student progress and the state's academic content and achievement standards.  All information oral or written related to school parent programs will be provided in a format and language that the parents can understand.
• To provide parents with opportunities to volunteer at Hondo High School following the volunteer guidelines which include a criminal history check for all volunteers. 
• To provide opportunities for parents to be involved at various levels in planning and decision making and also provide timely and repeated opportunities for parents to provide feedback to the school.
