NWAESC(2095)--Equity in School-Parent Partnerships



This session provides professional development on Equity in School-Parent Partnerships. The authors Socorro Herrera, Lisa Porter, and Katherine Barko-Alva, will address contemporary issues such as the absent parent, homework, vulnerable populations, limitations of current school-based family programs, and pedagogies of hope. Starting from the premise that children learn better when their learning community respects their families and cultures, this thought-provoking resource shows what it means—and what it takes— to include today’s diverse parents in their children’s learning. Moving educators away from out-of-date practices that can potentially marginalize and devalue the cultural assets of families, the authors provide practical, ready-to-use strategies to help schools re-envision the meaning of parental involvement and engagement. A copy of the book, Equity in School-Parent Partnerships will be provided for each participant.
