101 Ways to Create Real Family Engagement

by Steven M. Constantino

Many schools and districts have proclaimed their "strategies for family engagement" and set about "doing things" but they have not succeeded in engaging all families. At best, many have merely increased the engagement of the already engaged. Dr. Steve Constantino addresses the cultural revolution that must first occur, along with providing strategies and exercises that help schools begin making the tough cultural changes. Readers then learn how to build on that new cultural foundation and create the relationships that motivate family involvement, and ultimately create family engagement. This book contains 101 tested ways to create REAL family engagement.

Great book for anyone working in education. Works as a great checklist for school administrators as they plan and prepare to open a school, or as a reflection when reviewing school improvement plans.
