The school environment is an ideal place to begin the work of addressing mental health needs. Not only does the school offer a simple and cost-effective way of reaching youth, but it is also a convenient place where mental health can be linked with other aspects of health, such as physical health and nutrition, and with learning.

Leveraging Back-to-School to Inform Parents about College- and Career-Ready S...Achieve, Inc.
As schools transition to higher, more rigorous standards, it is critical that parents are informed about what the transition means for their children, how tests (and homework) may look different, and what resources are available to help them be able to play an informed and supportive role in their students’ learning. On this webinar, leaders at the state and district levels shared concrete steps they took to leverage back-to-school to inform parents about the transition to College- and Career-Ready Standards. To ground the conversation in what parents are really saying about the standards and assessments, Michael Gilligan, Achieve’s Vice President for Strategic Initiatives, and Alex Bratty, a Partner with Public Opinion Strategies, a corporate and public affairs survey research firm, shared the latest research on what parents want to know about the transition to higher, more rigorous standards. Erin Hart and Christie Silverstein with Expect More Arizona’s Arizona Aims Higher Coalition then shared how this research propelled them to pivot from telling parents why the standards are important to informing parents about what is happening in classrooms and what they can do to help their students succeed. Throughout, speakers from the state- and district-levels shared best practices on how to engage parents and disseminate information and tangible resources that can be modified to share with parents.

The Essential
Guide to FamilySchool
Partnerships

Johnson and Don Davies
The New Press, 2007
19. Fortress School (Below Basic)
• “Parents don’t care
about their children’s
education, and they
are the main reason
the kid’s are failing”
• “Parents don’t come
to conferences, no
matter what we do”
• Principal picks a
small group of
“cooperative
parents” to help out
• “We’re teachers, not
social workers”
• “Curriculum and
standards are too
advanced for these
parents”
20. Come-if-we-call School
(Basic)
• Parents are told
what students will
be learning at the
fall open house
• Workshops are
planned by staff
• Families can visit
school on report
card pickup day
• Parents call the
office to get
teacher-recorded
messages about
homework
21. Open-Door School (Proficient)
• Parent-teacher
conferences are held
at least twice a year
• There is an “Action
Team” for family
engagement
• School holds parent
events three or four
times a year
• Parents can raise
issues at PTA
meetings or see the
principal
• Diversity of families
is recognized
through multicultural
nights are held once
a year
22. Partnership School (Advanced)
• Families are seen as
partners in improving
educational
outcomes
• All family activities
are connected to
student learning
• There is a clear,
open process for
resolving problems
• Parent networks are
valued and cultivated
• Families are actively
involved in decisions
on school
improvement
• Staff conduct
relationship-building
home visits to
families
23. Why has it been difficult to
cultivate and sustain effective
family-school partnerships that
support student achievement
and school improvement?
24. The various stakeholders (parents,
school leaders, and school staff) have
not had the opportunity to develop
the collective capacity to engage in
effective partnerships.
25. What is capacity?
• Connections – social capital, the internal and
external relationships and the strength and
structure of those connections
• Capabilities – the specific types of human
capital, skills knowledge and know-how
• Confidence – the types of individual self efficacy
• Cognition – beliefs, assumptions and
worldviews
