Santa Barbara Junior High School

* Parent Involvement

At Santa Barbara Junior High we believe that parent involvement is critical to student success and plays a vital role in the culture of our school. Too often, the junior high years end up being a time when students experience the least amount of parent involvement. This is unfortunate because it truly is the time in a child's life when he/she needs the most support and guidance from parents. At Santa Barbara Junior High there are many opportunities for parent involvement and we encourage such action on the part of parents. The following are some of the ways that parents can be involved at SBJHS.
