How they approach the work
Named approaches extracted from this org’s sources. Where others share an approach, follow it to see the full set of orgs running it.
- Leverage Community Events to Foster Belonging and Engagementmethodology: community-engagement-eventBy hosting creative and welcoming events like "Chalk the Walk" and kindergarten meetups, we build parent networks and school connectedness early in the year, because shared experiences and accessible entry points increase family engagement and long-term involvement.
- Strengthen Home-School Communication to Build Engagementmethodology: home-school-communicationBy improving communication between parents and school administration, we strengthen home-school connections and foster greater community engagement, leading to more supportive environments for students and families.
- Use Education and Community Forums to Promote Inclusionmethodology: education-and-supportBy sharing knowledge and hosting forums on special education, we bridge understanding between general and special education communities, promoting acceptance and inclusive practices because informed communities are more supportive and less stigmatizing.
