Assessment Bootcamp is a series of three webinars that provides advocates and policymakers with a shared language and knowledge base about different types of assessments and the purposes they are–and are not–designed for and how these various assessments can work together to create coherent, balanced assessment systems.

Part 3 will focus on making the case for statewide summative assessments, including how to better communicate the purposes of each type of assessment, incorporate authentic community engagement in the development of assessment policy, and address common misconceptions about assessments from parents and educators.

On September 30, CUE will host a virtual event to launch its new report “Collaborating to transform and improve education systems: A playbook for family-school engagement.” After a short presentation on the playbook’s key findings, lead author and CUE Co-Director Rebecca Winthrop will moderate intimate chats with members of FEEN and other education decisionmakers about the role of family-school engagement and why it is so urgently needed—showcasing both speakers’ on-the-ground experiences and other findings from the playbook. The discussions will focus on how effective family engagement approaches can transform education systems to address growing inequality and give all children the breadth of skills needed to thrive in the 21st century—and the practical strategies for doing so.
