School-Family-Community Partnerships Team

Products and Services

Products

The School-Family-Community Partnerships team develops and disseminates resources for schools in the region on a variety of related topics. These publications are written for various audiences (such as early childhood care providers; elementary, middle, and high school staff; parents; community members). These products include three major resource and training manuals, as well as supplementary booklets.

Services

Learn to enhance student motivation and interest; improve school-family-community partnerships; and create a rigorous, relevant curriculum with culturally responsive, standards-based teaching. This workshop provides strategies to actively engage students (especially those who are typically disengaged) by tapping into their family, community, and youth culture. These strategies can be used in any subject area and can range from making small changes to existing curriculum to designing extensive projects—all adhering to state and local standards. As a result, families are positively and directly connected to the school and their children's education—which research shows has a positive impact on student achievement.
