The School Team is not Engaging with the Community

The Problem is Compounded 

The school team:

• does not promote improvements to the school environment  
• does not show parents or the community how the school is supporting their children
• does not demonstrate positive high-expectations strategies or encourage parents to reinforce them at home 
• does not involve parents in problem-solving discussions about their child’s learning 
• does not create opportunities for the school to engage with the community and community leaders 
• does not promote the community’s involvement in developing and achieving the school’s vision and improvement targets, which leaves the community disengaged from the school and its vision for students 
• does not empower parents to support their child’s education 
• does not engage parents to increase their commitment to improving students’ education opportunities.
