A document outlines 4 principles for improving family-school relationships: 1) Commit to building relationships with all parents, including those unable to visit school, through regular communication and online resources. 2) Plan all family-school activities to maximize student learning through experiential opportunities like technology nights and college application events. 3) Include children as active participants in conferences and interactions to foster their role. 4) Design events for parents to be fully participating decision-makers rather than just audiences, such as taking on classroom volunteer roles. Following these 4 principles will enhance relationships between families, schools, and communities.
