Parents

Since parents are key to the success of our students and our school we invite and encourage you to support our GMC students, teachers and staff by getting involved with PIP!

Parents in Partnership (PIP) was created by the Greer Middle College Charter High School Board of Directors as the organizational arm of the GMC parent volunteers.

Look for information in the weekly edition of Blazer News and on the GMC Parents in Partnership Facebook page.

Parents are required 36 hours per year, per family. Students may not participate in extra-curricular activities or participate in graduation if parent service hours are not completed.

• Generally, Parent Community Service Hours must be done at the school or for the school. However, there are occasions that we need help in the Greer community and those hours count for service. These opportunities will be clearly defined in the request sent from the school.
• Parents may log service hours for attending school meetings (one hour for each meeting). New Student Orientation, Open House, Parent Meetings, College Informational Meetings, Meet and Greet Board Candidates, Voting in Board Election, etc.
• Parents do receive hours for carpooling.
• Charter Barter: Parents may “buy out” their hours through monetary or supply/equipment donations. $10 = 1 hour.
