THE PRINCIPAL 50
Critical Leadership Questions for Inspiring Schoolwide Excellence
Chapter 9: Parent and Community Engagement
A satisfied and engaged parental and community support base can only help your school to soar higher. There will never be a time when parents and community members do not play a significant role in the overall progress of a campus.
PRINCIPALS MUST INTENTIONALLY ENGAGE PARENTS AND COMMUNITY MEMBERS.
My charge to you is to be reflective in practice and look for areas that can be improved upon for improvement. GOOD TO GREAT!
Here's to a great week of teaching and learning!
