People will often ask whether family engagement is a priority for districts when closing academic gaps, attendance, mental health, and teacher retention are screaming for attention. It’s such a false dichotomy! High quality family engagement is directly linked to improving all of those outcomes. I’ve been collaborating with Rebecca Honig, Weezie Hough, and Dr. Mallary Swartz to surface the research. This info session will be our second deep dive, this time into the link between academic success and family engagement.

Life Advice for The Next Generation "Right now there are wars raging on nearly every continent. It’s almost as if the adults are doing everything they can to break this world before you inherit it. The only solution I see is to grow the compassion and empathy you need to pick up the broken pieces. Look to the kindness that we show the displaced, the refugees. Let that kindness define the new world you can build. Advice number one: Accept your human imperfections Advice number two: Find your own path Advice number three: Travel. And now my final piece of advice: Look up: Put the phone down and look up. Because the world is a beautiful place and you don’t want to let it pass you by. Now it’s not going to be easy. But make sure you go out there and live life with all of its beauty and imperfections. Meet new people. Eat amazing food you’ve never even heard of before. Get your heart broken. Break someone else’s heart. And then do better next time."
