“Teachers benefit when families and schools engage with each other regularly- throughout the school year and beyond. Strong family engagement improves teacher performance; parents reinforce lessons at home, which can increase academic growth. When families are engaged it reinforces the importance of education, improving students’ attitude towards school, and reducing behavioral problems. Family engagement makes teachers’ job easier – and happier.”
FACE aims to help educators engage with families in ways that support students’ academic and social success. There are no quick fixes but there are crucial guiding principles and research-based strategies that facilitate the building of effective partnerships with families in support of student and school improvement.
