Description: The research is clear: family engagement is critical to the success of our education system – from implementing large-scale reform to improving individual student achievement levels. Across the board, there is agreement among education leaders and stakeholders that parents and family members are central to the success of a school, a teacher, and a student. There is less agreement and less clarity around what family engagement is, what family engagement is supposed to look like, and what effective, replicable models of family engagement exist.

Please join YEP-DC, the Flamboyan Foundation, and Senator Michael Bennet at the panel event “Family Engagement: Bridging the Classroom-to-Living Room Divide” where we will explore the role of educators, schools, districts, and the federal government in developing, identifying, and scaling up best practices in effectively engaging parents, families, and community members in a child’s education.

Panelists include:
Kelly Young, Interim Chief, Office of Family and Public Engagement, District of Columbia Public Schools
Jacque Chevalier-Minow, Senior Education Policy Analyst, National Parent Teacher Association
Danette Dicks, Kindergarten Teacher, Eagle Academy Public Charter School
Aquila Watson, D.C. parent
Moderator: Kristin Ehrgood, President & Board Chair, Flamboyan Foundation
With remarks by Senator Michael Bennet (D-CO), former superintendent of Denver Public Schools (confirmed)
