We can teach colleagues to engage families by helping them to change their mindset to believe that family engagement is important and not just another thing to do #Sp20FaCE
@SheerID@vineyardvines I keep getting rejected for the teacher discount even though I uploaded three separate documents that clearly show I am employed as a teacher.
The dominant ideas of engagement can cause harm to families. Schools are set in their ways, yet wonder why families aren’t attending events. Want more family engagement? Schools need to get rid of the status quo and be proactive about being the change they want to see! #Sp20FaCE
Schools can relate to their communities by showing an interest in everyone that lives in that area and by providing events that encourage community involvement. Communities can relate to schools by valuing the educators and trusting we have their best interests at heart #Sp20FaCE
Educators often negatively assume families not showing up to events equates to no interest in the school. We need to assume positive intentions! What are the barriers preventing them from attending? What can we do to make them feel more welcome? Be that agent of change! #Sp20FaCE
Engagement is bringing together all the stakeholders of a school community to ensure everyone has a voice. It is our job as educators to help facilitate this! #Sp20FaCE
