Advocacy
Advocacy takes place on many levels with a school community.  One focus of advocacy is parents’ advocating for their children.  However, parents also advocate for teachers, staff and the school community.  Teachers and staff also take on the role of advocates for their students, their classroom and the school community.  On a broader level, parents, teachers and staff advocate for issues related to the health and educational success of all children. 

What follows is information about the role of advocacy within Irwin Academic Center, Charlotte/Mecklenburg PTA Council and the NCPTA as well as some tools that can be used when addressing an issue, concern or advocating for a student or cause.  Please feel free to reach out to Irwin’s Advocacy Committee Chair with questions, concerns or to get more involved in advocacy efforts at Irwin Academic Center
