BIMONTHLY FAMILY ENGAGEMENT RESOURCES
September-October 2023
This site provides resources for ParentCamp and describes a free, full-day event with more than 20 discussion sessions for parents and teachers, as well as frequent virtual meetings. It is billed as an "un-conference" because the idea is to encourage parents to talk and engage, rather than to provide a series of lectures to parents.

“The purpose of this qualitative case study was to investigate, through the lens of Adult Learning Theory, the perceived influence of TeleNGAGE on educators’ and families’ capacity to collaborate in equitable and transformative ways.…This social learning space, which supported adult preferences and motivations for learning, created a synergy that led to equitable social status, the application of new knowledge, and innovative approaches to problem-solving.”

“This article explores an action-oriented research study designed to provide better understanding of ways to leverage school and community partnership through family engagement, focusing on the development and enactment of an approach to nurture family–school partnerships. Specifically, in partnership with seven school districts, a team of educators employed an inquiry cycle to plan and investigate family engagement efforts focused on emergent bilingual students and their families.”
