Two-Way Communication Strategies that Catalyze Stronger Family Engagement

Ari has spent the last decade coaching dozens of schools and listening to hundreds of families providing input around their needs. The most consistent feedback is that schools need to shift from one-way communication approaches that are convenient for educators to two-way communication strategies that work well for families.

Through this learning journey, it has become clear that these new approaches are also deeply rewarding for educators too.In this webinar, we will explore easy-to-implement and effective communication practices that significantly strengthen school-family partnerships, reduce chronic absenteeism, and propel student achievement.
