Strengthen YOUR program of family and community engagement
to promote equity and increase student success!

When schools, families, and communities collaborate and share responsibility for students’ education, more students succeed in school. Based on over 30 years of research and fieldwork, the 4th edition of this bestseller presents tools and guidelines to develop goal-linked programs of family and community engagement to engage all families, connect with community partners, and improve academic and behavioral results for students.

Written by a team of well-known experts, readers will find a theory, framework, and ready-to-use tools to strengthen YOUR partnership programs and practices at all grade levels. See new professional development materials in this edition:

• New examples of best practices for the Six Types of Involvement from preschools, and elementary, middle, and high schools across the country.
• Updated checklists, templates, and evaluations to plan goal-linked partnership programs and assess progress.
• CD-ROM and new URL with slides and notes for two presentations: A new Awareness Session
  to orient colleagues on the major components of a research-based partnership program, and a full One-Day Team Training Workshop to prepare your school teams to develop their partnership programs. Workshop activities in English and Spanish.

This book will help all districts and schools continually improve their programs and practices of family and community engagement.

Nine chapters offer step-by-step strategies to improve leadership and programs of school, family, and community connections.
