FAMILY ENGAGEMENT
Epic aims to be the world leader in caregiver empowerment and engagement. We do this by building and supporting our community: YOU. Our resources vary from form requests, helpful videos, homework tips, student engagement, and much more!
ABOUT FAMILY ENGAGEMENT
Epic Charter Schools aims to bring families & caregivers together to build a sense of community within Epic. When caregivers and families are empowered and confident in their involvement with the educational process, students succeed academically.
EPIC EXPOS
Our Family Engagement Department provides events and resources around the state to empower families with detailed How to’s, Resources, and General navigation of the Epic model of education for all grade levels and all specific needs. These expo events will be provided in both English and Spanish with language-specific handouts to ensure inclusion.

WHO WE ARE
COMMUNITY SERVICE & OUTREACH
We plan community service project opportunities for students throughout the state. Students and their families/caretakers participate together. We love providing opportunities for our students and their families to give back to their community.
FIELD TRIPS
Academic field trips throughout the state are planned weekly and include lesson plans and extension activities aligned to state standards. Field trips vary in price, and students from less-advantaged families or those enduring financial hardship may receive scholarship assistance. Two weekly academic enrichment field trips throughout the state will be offered.
ENRICHMENT EVENTS
Academic enrichment activities provide educational growth opportunities for students at all levels. At Epic, we want to enhance academic experiences and give students a chance to engage with other students. A few enrichment activities available are spelling bees, geography bees, author's visits, wax museums, science & art fairs, and much more.
RESOURCES
Take a look at our “Take 5” how-to resources. These include short video tutorials and other easy-to-follow how-tos that aid families in their Epic journey.
