RootsConnectED: Engaging Families in Schools

One of the most important stakeholders in a diverse school community are the families.

In this workshop, RootsConnectED will share a new approach to family programming, that pushes thinking beyond the “multicultural potluck” and towards authentic relationship building.  Partcipants will discuss the key elements needed for successful community programming and elements of careful program planning, particularly in diverse school environments.  Participants will also leave with an opportunity to think about how this presentation has direct impact on their practice and will consider next steps in continuing to build their vibrant school communities.
