Family and Community Engagement Introduction

Board members and the superintendent attended two sessions by Steve Constantino on family and community engagement in November 2004.  Subsequently, a team consisting of the superintendent, a board member, a principal, an administrator, and a parent attended the Family Friendly Schools Institute in 2005.  As a result of this training a family and community engagement policy was developed and recommended to the Board of Education.  The policy was passed by the Board during July and August meetings.

The team also worked on a family/community engagement plan and developed a draft plan.  The original team was expanded to include additional parent representatives from each school.  This Parent Advisory Committee (PAC) held meetings to further develop the Family and Community Engagement Plan and to recommend ways to improve parent to home communication and family/community involvement in the schools.

This plan is a result of the work of the PAC.  It is a living and evolving document that will be evaluated annually and modified as needed.
