PARENT ADVISORY BOARD
VIPs – VERY IMPORTANT PARENTS
At GEP, parents and guardians are VIPs—Very Important Parents! We believe families are essential partners in helping children learn, grow, and thrive.
Each GEP afterschool site has a VIP Parent Advisory Board that meets regularly to provide feedback, share ideas, advocate for families, and help strengthen the GEP experience. VIPs serve as an important connection between GEP families, staff, and leadership.
FAMILY ENGAGEMENT & GROWTH
GEP encourages parents and guardians to be active participants in their child’s learning while also creating opportunities for their own personal growth. Throughout the year, families are invited to participate in workshops, trainings, family engagement nights, special events, and volunteer opportunities.
Through our VIP program, parents have a voice, a place to connect, and opportunities to make a difference.
Because at GEP, being Child Focused means being Family Centered.

"Everything depends on upbringing."
- Leo Tolstoy
