Family Engagement with Charley Cass

One of the most crucial aspects of education is involvement from families.  Research even shows how valuable it is on students.  Increased family engagement leads to higher grades, better attendance, and more likely that a student will have a successful post-secondary career.   I honestly believe schools all over are getting a better grasp on this as they look at ways to positively engage families.  Good News Call of the Day is one popular way.  Many schools lean on social media to connect with their families.  The key is knowing where, how, and when to connect so you reach as many as you can.   For today's Anchored in Education, I've invited Charley Cass back to talk more on family engagement.  Charley has some creative ways to connect with families at his school.  Plus, he shares other ideas that are inexpensive and invaluable at the same time. You might remember the last Charley was on we talked about the stress awards can have on students.  Click here to listen to that episode.
