The School Team Engages with Community

When teachers share student data with parents, they engage with the community and involve parents in their child’s education.

The school team:

• promotes improvements to the school environment to show parents and the community how the school supports their children
• creates opportunities for parents to visit classrooms. (This increases parents’ commitment to being involved in improving their child’s education opportunities.)
• demonstrates positive high expectation strategies and encourages parents to reinforce them at home
• involves parents in problem solving discussions about their child’s learning 
• creates opportunities for the school to engage with the community and community leaders
• promotes the community’s involvement in developing and achieving the school’s vision and improvement targets through community engagement initiatives.
