Campaign for Grade-Level Reading’s Post

Mark your calendar. On September 10th from 4-5 p.m. ET, Overdeck Family Foundation and Ad Council will host a webinar revealing key takeaways from a recently completed mixed methods research study examining K-12 parents’ views on education and school absences, and the narratives that would effectively communicate why consistent in-person attendance is critical. Register here: https://lnkd.in/e9cSb5VR The findings in this report and accompanying toolkit, presented by Derrick Feldmann, will provide guidance for policymakers, practitioners, and educators on how to best develop messaging that motivates families to consistently send their children to school in person. Following a review of the research, hear from experts and practitioners Dr. Robert Balfanz, Hedy Chang, Angelica Infante-Green, and Dr. Todd Rogers during a live panel conversation moderated by Lina Eroh. cc: Attendance Works, EveryDay Labs, Everyone Graduates Center, Johns Hopkins University, Harvard University, Johns Hopkins University School of Education, Rhode Island Department of Education
