Engage Families and Community
Engaging families and communities in
the improvement of public education
is the battle cry across the
country. We must recognize the value
that each member of the community
brings to the education table.
Together RIDE will work with
districts as they:
- Ensure that all district
personnel, including the school
committee, actively work
together to involve families and
the community in promoting
student achievement.
- Inform families about
educational opportunities within
the school system, including
public-school choice options,
the availability of supplemental
services, and the right of every
student to be challenged
academically.
- Communicate directly with
families of children about
learning and behavioral
expectations, student outcomes,
and the quality of schools and
teachers.
- Actively support schools in
working effectively with
families and the community in
promoting student proficiency
across academic, civic,
personal, and behavioral
dimensions.
