Course info

Research shows students perform better when school
leaders have strong family and community
relationships. This course defines family and
community engagement for inclusive schools,
identifies the critical stakeholders, and develops
inclusive engagement and collaborative strategies.
District demographic data and needs assessments
are used for developing family and community
engagement plans while taking into account
categories of diversity (cultural, ethnic, racial,
economic, ability). The course includes
discussions of successful family and community
engagement models.
